Ran Peleg

Ran is a multidisciplinary educator who links between science and arts for the sake of education. He trained as a Chemical Engineer at the University of Cambridge. However, he soon left the engineering world and joined a dance company, after which, he trained in other performing arts. He uses his multidisciplinary background to form creative and motivating learning environments for students. Some of his projects include: producing educational plays on science and studying the learning outcomes of students watching these in schools and museums, teaching science through miming stories, designing the curriculum of an interdisciplinary STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts) programme, and building a mobile, educational escape room for upper-secondary chemistry students. and He did his PhD in Science Education from the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology and is a graduate of the Mandel Scholars in Education program for distinguished PhD students in the field of education.
