Hello dear colleagues,.
I’d like to share with you all. As you know, I’ve been working with my students—my girls—on exploring AI and creative tools like Canva. Recently, I gave them a new topic: “How Can We Save Our Earth from Climate Change.” I asked them to write about it and create posters that reflect their thoughts and ideas.

To take it a step further, we also experimented with adding audio to their posters—a trial run to boost their confidence and fluency in speaking. It was like a mini podcast or audio presentation, allowing them to express their ideas not just visually but also through their own voices.
Today I got first presentation completed by one of my student ،im sharing link and eager to hear from you.

Hello Respected Sir,
Hopefully you are doing well.What a powerful and deeply moving reflection on the true essence of teaching!

You’ve beautifully captured the heart of what it means to be an educator. A real teacher doesn't just transfer information—they transform lives. Inspiring a love for learning, nurturing curiosity, and encouraging children to think critically and feel deeply—these are the marks of true teaching.

Books may fill shelves, but only a passionate teacher can fill minds and touch souls. A tape recorder delivers content; a real teacher delivers connection. You remind us that teaching is not a job—it's a calling.

Thank you for this profound reminder of the responsibility and honor it is to shape young minds.

Regards

Hello Dear Colleagues,
As I mentioned earlier regarding the Sustainable Learning Circle, my students are currently working on the topics of Artificial Intelligence and Canva. I am doing my best to facilitate and support them during this time.

Our current focus is “Quality Education in My Vision.” Although we are observing summer vacations and the students are working from home, many of these girls do not have access to modern smartphones or reliable internet/data. Despite these challenges, the students who are responding are truly shining with their efforts and enthusiasm.
Here Im sharing link to some of my girls work.

I will love to hear from you all.
Regards

Dear I hope you are doing well. Thank you for shedding light on such an important topic. Autistic teachers absolutely bring invaluable strengths to the classroom, and their presence can transform the educational experience for both neurodiverse and neurotypical students. Their ability to approach teaching from a unique perspective often results in more empathetic, creative, and inclusive learning environments. It’s encouraging to see the conversation shifting toward recognizing and supporting neurodiversity in education—not just among students, but among educators as well. Creating space for autistic teachers to thrive benefits everyone involved and moves us closer to truly inclusive education.

Dear Hazar
Here I second your thoughts that every educator is making learning meaningful, globally interactive and innovative. Of course each of the project has a essence of sincere, dedicated and passionate teaching soul behind. There is alot of new innovative teaching techniques, strategies and approaches in these projects and these are an open source of learning.
Im greatful for being a part of this competition.
Regards abd Best wishes to all participants.

Hello Dear,
Im sure you are enjoying summer vacations. Yes Im certain about using this technology to my classroom, as an engligh lanuage educator I prefer students to more effectively express their thoought not on curriculum but on general topics too. As the text I teach has vast topics to think and express. So podcast not only helps them to share but this is a easy way to listen on different time on our SUSTAINABLE LEARNING CIRCLE.

Regards

Hello Sir,
I absolutely podcast is effective on low-resources environment. So it is applicable easily . Im certain about the outcomes from this teaching tool would be grendous specially in communication, creativty and expressions.

@HAZAR0c50a82765
Hello Dear ,
I completly acknowledge your thougts about the use of Podcast as a pedagogical tool. I also certain that some of student s who are shy to speak in front of class could share their reflection in podcast. some who are less expressive this strategy coukd bringout their inner thoughts . Students who are confident could make theri communiction more effective, to the point and also they can learn new words, idoms, pharese or some complex sentences to deliver their thoughts.

Hello dear,
Thank you so much! Absolutely podcasting through UNESCO 3.0 has truly empowered my students—especially the shy ones—to express themselves, think critically, and collaborate creatively. It’s a simple yet powerful tool to enhance learning and digital literacy.

@Denis-Kudaimetov
Hello Sir,
Hopefully you have good time. Absolutely, I completely agree with your thoughts! Im working on AI and digital literacy for my students and teaching them on their smart phones . I started a whatapp group to teach them chatgpt, canva on initial stage. This competition has provided me many more aspects to expand my project.

Looking forward to the possibility of working together on meaningful, global educational projects!

Warm Regards

Hello Sir
Hopefully you are doing good. .I saw your project it is truly inspiring. I like you said gamification is also for collaboration. this thinking resonate to me because i most of the time use different games in my teaching to warm-up and to check students learning outcome in fun way. Yes when we divide them in teams they perform more effective and quick responses are seen. Using board game for learning is great to see.
Best of luck for your project and future .

Futher more globalization in education is not just a concept anymore — it’s a reality we experience every day, thanks to powerful digital tools like AI and Canva.

AI tools break barriers by offering real-time translation, personalized learning experiences, automated feedback, and content generation. They allow students and teachers from different countries to collaborate, learn, and innovate together, regardless of language or time zone.

Canva plays an equally vital role — enabling learners to co-create visually engaging content, pitch ideas creatively, and build global projects with students and educators across the world. Its simplicity and accessibility make it perfect for cross-cultural teamwork and expression.

Together, AI and Canva are not just tools — they are bridges that connect minds, amplify voices, and foster global citizenship in today’s digital classrooms.

Through my participation in the UNESCO Competition 3.0, I discovered the powerful educational benefits of podcasts. One key insight I gained is how podcasts can enhance learning beyond the classroom walls. They offer flexible, accessible, and student-centered learning opportunities, especially for students in low-resource settings.

Podcasts help learners engage with content at their own pace, improve listening and critical thinking skills, and express themselves through creative audio storytelling. I was particularly inspired by how podcasting promotes collaboration, confidence, and digital literacy — giving every student a platform to share their voice.

Now, I actively use podcasts in my classroom. Whether it's through student-created episodes, reflective audio journals, or listening to educational podcasts followed by discussions, I've seen how this tool transforms traditional lessons into engaging, meaningful experiences.

Thank you, UNESCO, for introducing this innovative approach to teaching. It’s not just a competition; it’s a step toward future-ready education.

Dear HAZAR, Hopefully you have good time and now enjoying your summer vactions
.

I've seen you project,
FROM REAL TO VIRTUAL: RE-IMAGININ REALITY THROUGH DIGITAL ART:
Its really inspiring and eye-capturing project. Using of smart phones as digital tool is really a great approach , I can resonate with this because this device is also creating major visible impact on students learning. your approach to transform real object into artistic version is immensly superub and applicable. this project is definetly developing students abilities of creativity, collaboration, and critical thinking. This project will help students to observe their surrounding more deeper and create some beautiful abstract. I loved all project shown in the video but a YATCH and a HUMAN HEAD reading book inspired me alot. The project also sounds good because the educator voice is full of enthusiam and excitement of teaching their students a sustainable quality education that meet the parametres of sustainable development goals.
Wish you best for your project, and your shining teaching practices.

In today’s digital age, education is rapidly evolving with the use of high-end technology, but not all students and teachers have equal access to such resources. That’s where WhatsApp comes in — a simple, widely accessible, and low-tech platform that can make a high-impact difference in learning.

WHY WHATSAPP WORKS
WhatsApp is not just a messaging app. For educators in low-resource settings, it can become a powerful classroom extension — enabling communication, collaboration, and creativity without needing high-speed internet or expensive devices.

A GAMAE CHANGER
WhatsApp serves as a powerful low-tech learning tool by enabling teachers to stay connected with students and parents through quick reminders and supportive messages. It supports micro-learning with short audios, vocabulary tips, and bite-sized videos, while also creating space for peer collaboration through group discussions. Teachers can assign creative, low-data tasks like photo-based writing, voice poems, or science explainers to enhance communication and critical thinking. Weekly reflection questions further promote self-assessment, making WhatsApp a flexible and inclusive platform for continuous, meaningful learning.

REAL-WORLDIMPACT
In remote or underserved areas, WhatsApp has become a bridge between homes and schools — especially during school closures or for girls who face mobility restrictions. It fosters inclusion, flexibility, and student agency.

SUSTAINABLE LEARNING CIRCLE-WHATAPP AS OUR CLASSROOM

Our Sustainable Learning Circle is a shining example of this approach. Created as a WhatsApp group for girls aged 13–15, it empowers students through English learning, digital tools like AI and Canva, and peer encouragement. Despite limited access to devices or data, these young learners are growing in creativity, confidence, and collaboration — proving that true learning doesn’t need high-tech tools, only high-purpose teaching.

In our circle, WhatsApp isn’t just an app — it’s a classroom, a studio, a stage, and a window to the world.

Let’s keep learning, sharing, and making education inclusive — one message at a time.

Hello Respected Sir
Absolutely! Students are the architects of tomorrow, and the future of any nation depends on how we educate, empower, and inspire them today.
Over 50% of the population in many developing countries is under 25 — this youth population, if educated well, becomes a strong workforce and innovation engine.
We can empower Students as Future Leaders:

1. Project-Based Learning (PBL)
   Encourage students to work on real-life problems. It helps them build critical thinking, teamwork, and innovation skills.
2. STEAM Education
   Integrate Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math to promote holistic and creative learning.
3. Leadership Opportunities
   Create student councils, peer mentoring groups, or youth clubs so students learn decision-making and responsibility.
4. Digital Literacy & AI Tools
   Introduce students to modern tools like Canva, ChatGPT, and coding platforms. These prepare them for the future digital economy.

Hello Dear
I hope you have good days.
"I completely agree with you. In this era of globalization, platforms like the UNESCO e-Forum are a true blessing. They not only provide us with the chance to showcase our skills but also connect us with diverse perspectives from around the world. Every day, we discover new ideas and gain valuable insights that help us grow both personally and professionally. Moreover the E-library has lits of learning materials and self learning courses that I believe a good additionto our assests of knowledge. "

Hello Respected Sir
That’s such a powerful reflection.
As educators, we often encourage kindness and praise — but real-life settings sometimes limit open expression. In such cases, I try to teach students that support doesn’t always need words. A smile, a nod, a thumbs-up, or even silently standing by someone can mean a lot. We also explore ways to show appreciation through writing — small notes, messages, or reflections.

It’s about cultivating empathy in all forms, even quiet ones.
Warm Regards
