The Global Creativity Initiative Podcast
The Global Creativity Initiative Network shares academic research for practical insights, information and application of our human superpower. Creativity is within all of us. We can and must learn to become more creative. If you haven't heard, creativity is now one of the most important skills of our time. And if you're not sure about all this 'creativity stuff,' we've got you covered. Our team gets it. We're here to translate the scholarly field of creativity into every day, accessible language and tools for all humanity. Example: The Reisman Center for Translational Research on Creativity and Motivation does exactly this. The frcenter.net provides easily available modules, tools and assistance for the development of creativity in education, professional life and yes, everyday creativity every day. Together is better.

Be Creative to Be Well for LIFE (and especially as an educator): A talk with Professor Chris Wilson
Creativity is central to our well-being. "Be original, be creative, think outside the box" are among the mantras to 'be creative.' And yet, how and when do we learn what that means? Seemingly late in one's academic career, too often at the master's or doctoral is when creativity becomes a hot topic among educators. This is too late! Assuming we value wellness, Chris offers a stark perspective on the reality of teacher attrition, standard cultural practices and process not to mention, AI challenging education and educators. Creativity is a learnable skillset, applicable to all domains and especially teaching, which requires constant problem solving in a live environment.
