If you don’t get Creative Educator magazine, you should! Edited by Melinda Kolk, my friend for many many years (ever since she was at HyperStudio and I was at Knowledge Adventure), this is a wonderful print and online magazine published by Tech4Learning. Tech4Learning makes brilliant creativity software for K-12 schools and the magazine supports creativity and construction in the K-12 classroom.
I have an article in the current issue (Spring 2010) called Say the Change You Want to See, based on a blog post from a couple of months ago. The article is about how educators can plan for the changes they want, even those much-desired wishes that sometimes go unspoken.
There are lots of other great articles in the magazine, including:
And one more thing - it’s FREE! Even the print version is free, so choose whatever version works for you: online articles, full screen online flipbook, subscribe to receive a print version by mail, or PDF to print out and pass around.

Last week I mentioned the article What Makes a Good Project? Eight elements to great project design by Gary Stager in the Creative Educator magazine.
I hope you had a chance to look at the whole Creative Educator magazine, because it’s great. It’s published twice a year by Tech4Learning, publisher of creativity software for K-12 schools
The Creative Educator is fully available online, and in addition to the project article, this month’s issue has some great articles.
- Universal design - tales from a 4th grade classroom about using software that includes ALL students
- Bloom and Marzano for the 21st century
- Digital Storytelling
- Portfolios - and an interview with Helen Barrett, a pioneer and thought-leader of the digital portfolio movement
- Lessons and ideas from classroom teachers using creativity software to enhance learning
The articles are all online, and every issue can be downloaded as a PDF. But if you live in the U.S. there’s also a way to get the good ol’ fashioned paper version for FREE - just subscribe here.
