Ali Iberraken

As an educator with over 14 years of classroom experience, Ali has always been passionate about getting students out of the classroom. Whether it was taking her physics students on a trip to the local park to find examples of energy transformations, or when as a Dean of Students, she took her entire grade on all sorts of trips - Six Flags, teambonding, even a two-week trip to Spain, Ali has led close to 100 trips.

However, while knowing how beneficial experiential learning is for students, she also knew firsthand of the risk and stress encountered by teachers and schools when it comes to taking students out of the classroom. Therefore, using her own experiences as a guide, she created Chapperone (www.gochapperone.com) a teacher-loved app that safeguards and streamlines student trips.

Ali is a panelist for 'The EdTech Product Diaries: 3 Real-Life Stories' event on Tuesday at 2.30pm in ACC Room 18CD - do come by!
