Omnia Mokhtar
Sr. Instructional Specialist- Technology & Innovation - OWIS Riyadh
I am an educator, STEAM coordinator, and technology innovation leader with expertise in integrating emerging technologies into teaching and learning. I hold dual Master’s degrees in Software Engineering and Education (Advanced Teaching), am STEM and Apple Education certified, and am currently a PhD researcher at Cairo University focusing on technology-enhanced learning.
I serve as Senior Instructional Specialist for Technology & Innovation, IB PYP STEAM Coordinator, and Middle Leadership Team member, leading robotics, coding, VR, Fab Lab, and design thinking initiatives that enhance student engagement. I was part of the core team that enabled OWIS to become the first Apple Distinguished School in Saudi Arabia.
As a School Sustainability Ambassador, I lead UN SDGs in Action initiatives, embedding sustainability and real-world problem solving across the curriculum. I also contribute regionally through the Apple Distinguished School and GSG MENA Innovation & Technology teams. My work bridges research, practice, and leadership to support future-ready learning.
