supporting your
Professional Learning Community
When we started the podcast, our mission was to promote creativity in learning. With over 200 episodes, we’ve shared actionable tips and best practices to inspire educators. Now, we’re focusing on supporting Professional Learning Communities (PLCs) by helping schools explore what creativity looks like and sounds like in their classrooms.
This page is designed to help your PLC facilitate essential skills and experiences that nurture creativity in teaching and learning. Through collaboration, open discussion, and a shared commitment to improving instructional practices, the content and resources on this page are designed to guide you in building a student-centered learning environment dedicated to creativity.
Listen and Learn 2025
Introducing the Winter 2025 Listen and Learn series, a four-episode collection designed to inspire and empower Professional Learning Communities (PLCs) in K-12 schools. This special series features highlights from interviews with educators and researchers from our first season, paired with actionable guidance for cultivating creativity in your classroom.
In each episode, Co-Hosts Matthew Worwood and Cyndi Burnett present key topics drawn from these clips and model how to facilitate meaningful conversations within your PLC. From discussing innovative teaching strategies to exploring ways to foster student creativity, each conversation is crafted to lead your group toward actionable steps for enhancing teaching and learning in your classroom.
