Hybrid Curriculum

Learner

K-12 Students

Stakeholders

Advisory Board, Local Schools, teachers, parents, and the community.

In rural Iran, life skills are not included in the K–12 curriculum, and many communities lack access to libraries, technology, and classrooms. Young learners needed opportunities to build essential skills for their personal and professional futures.

Challenge

Designed hybrid computer science, soft-skills, and vocational training programs to equip underprivileged youth with tools for growth and empowerment. The curriculum blended academic learning with creativity, culture, and play, including:

Scientific and educational learning to spark curiosity.
Book reading circles and storytelling to inspire imagination.
Cultural exchange programs to build empathy and understanding.
Creative play groups and art learning to nurture self-expression.
Online and hands-on intellectual games to strengthen cognitive development.

Solution

Canvas, Nearpod, Zoom, various age-appropriate game platforms, Microsoft Office, and Google Classroom.
