Dr Mai Khaleel
About me
Accomplished Physicist and Educator with a PhD in Nanoscience and Technology and extensive experience in both higher education and secondary school environments. Proven track record in integrating sustainable development goals and energy conservation into physics curricula. Expertise in optical properties of nanomaterials, microscopic imaging ellipsometry, and digital pedagogy. Dedicated to fostering student engagement through innovative teaching strategies, digital content creation, and AI-driven educational tools.
Accomplished physicist and educator with a PhD in Nanoscience and Technology from National Tsing Hua University and Academia Sinica. With over 15 years of experience across higher education and secondary school environments, specializes in IB Physics and undergraduate-level instruction, recently serving as an Assistant Professor at the University of Petra and Isra University (part-time job). As a Global Schools Advocate for the UN SDSN, I'm integrating sustainability and energy conservation into science curricula. My research expertise includes advanced material characterization techniques such as microscopic imaging ellipsometry and Atomic Force Microscopy, with a specific focus on sensing applications for biological structures. Additionally, I'm a pioneer in digital pedagogy, utilizing AI tools and H5P interactive content to enhance modern student engagement.
