Episode 261: Making Every PD Count
Dan Ryder
We’ve all had to sit through professional development (PD) that didn't resonate with us as art educators, but that doesn't mean we have to walk away defeated and empty-handed. Returning guest Dan Ryder joins The Creativity Department to share his own experiences with PD that missed the mark for visual arts and the mindset that helps him get the most from every learning opportunity. From finding valuable takeaways in general education sessions to creating his own spaces for art educator collaboration, Dan offers practical strategies for turning less-than-perfect PD into meaningful professional growth.
