Fueling Creativity in Education

The Fueling Creativity Podcast captures the conversational coffee break room dialogue between cutting-edge educators, practitioners, and researchers in the field of education and creativity. Like the traditional coffee break, these 20-minute sessions are quick and energizing. Hosted by Dr. Cynthia Burnett and Dr. Matthew Worwood, these rich and informed discussions will initiate deeper thinking on what creativity means for educators across the grades. Each caffeinated cup of classroom conversation is guaranteed to empower and inspire you during your school day and, hopefully, make you smile!
