Jack Kahn

"The Amazing Race: Ancient Cultures" was designed by Kahn to have students develop and participate in a humanities version of "The Amazing Race", a popular reality television show. The project allows the students to gather information from around the globe for an appealing and energetic educational experience. In developing their "stories", the 90 12th-grade students at McClintock High School will utilize cutting-edge video technology, software, and other resources. During the game, students will represent other cultures that they will be studying. Creativity will play a big part in the game and the students will have to utilize their creative minds to keep the game moving. The final product will be evaluated on the culture or time period on which it is focused. Kahn lives in Gilbert.
