Dr. Rick Kaht Teacher of the Year for Cobb County picks up his New Honda Pilot
Dickerson Middle School #39;s Dr. Richard Kaht aims to get his students excited about exploring science, using humor and hands-on reinforcement. Dr. Kaht said, "If students do not enjoy my Life Science class, it will be that much harder for them to learn the material and take ownership in the concepts." For example, after discussing Gregor Mendel #39;s study of genetics by growing peas, students grew their own peas in the classroom. "I try to not only teach a subject, but also present skills of learning and the idea that they can be successful and accomplish great things." During the 2011-2012 school year, Dr. Kaht started Dickerson #39;s FTC Robotics Club for students as a fun, extracurricular extension of the science concepts covered during class time. In its first year, the team competed against teams of high school students and earned two top ten finishes. Since joining Dickerson in 1999, Dr. Kaht has participated in the DMS Leadership Team, helped implement the Olweus Bullying Prevention program and collaborated with other science teachers to improve instruction throughout Cobb CountyFrom:EdVoylesHondaViews:0 0ratingsTime:00:51More inEducation
