Professional Development

Interactive, relevant, and fun: Inspired Teaching’s improvisation-based professional development for educators.

Center for Inspired Teaching envisions a future where all students are enthusiastic learners, who look forward to school and have agency in their education. That begins with teachers. When teachers build creativity, critical thinking skills, or content knowledge in a joyful and challenging environment, they are better positioned to build those skills in their students.

See below for Inspired Teaching’s professional learning opportunities for individual teachers and school communities.

It will take work to make engagement the norm this year. It will take marshaling our knowledge of observing and listening to kids, giving and receiving feedback, finding the right words to push a learner forward, and applying creative energy to planning lessons that engage all our students’ senses.
