My Nonprofit Reviews

Ikram Eseghir, Mohamed 5 High School,
Kenitra, Morocco
It is certain that The MY HERO Project experience
has been very enjoyable and enriching for my
students and me. As a teacher, I greatly benefited
from the resources and exchange of ideas the
website offers; it has also enabled me to know
more about my students: their heroes,
idols,aspirations; it has also been an opportunity
to discover many of their talents: writing, art,
technology, that would otherwise have remained
unknown!
For my students, this project has been an
innovative learning activity: they have been
responsible for their own learning (making
decisions and choosing heroes/ how to present
themes; it has offered them a secure and
motivating space to collaborate, exchange ideas
locally and globally as well as to freely express
themselves; they have been using technology for a
variety of purposes: connect, gather and organize
information. In brief, this project- based activity
has been a perfect model of 21st century learning
design that teachers all over the globe are aspiring
for! So, thanks a million!
On behalf of all my students, I would like to thank
all the MY HERO team members. Special thanks
are due to our facilitators Barry and Wendy for
making this journey comfortable and successful,
and of course, best wishes to all the teachers and
students who have participated in this learning
circle.
Last but not least, I would not miss the
opportunity to deeply thank my students/ "heroes"
who have produced excellent work despite time
and curriculum constraints. I am so proud of
them.
