Kenyan Science teacher attempts Guiness world records
Rose Tata Wekesa, a Kenyan science teacher, seems to have set a new world record for the longest uninterrupted science lesson.
The classroom laboratory in Nairobi erupted into cheers as the clock hit the 50-hour mark. However, Ms. Wekesa didn’t stop there and continued beyond the initial 50-hour target. The official confirmation of this remarkable feat awaits verification by Guinness World Records.
Wekesa, a dedicated biology and chemistry teacher at St. Austin’s Academy, an international school in Nairobi, expressed her motivation for taking on this challenge. In an interview with the privately owned Citizen Digital news website last month, she stated that she aimed “to showcase the achievable and captivating aspects of science.”
Adding a personal touch to her endeavour, she emphasised, “I want to motivate young students aspiring to become teachers by demonstrating that educators can accomplish extraordinary feats beyond the conventional classroom setting.”
She has now been teaching for over 53 hours.
This unprecedented attempt is currently being livestreamed online and is unfolding at the Multimedia University in Kenya. The ongoing event is not only a testament to Wekesa’s passion for science education but also serves as an inspiration for students and educators alike.
