2013 Michigan Creative Educators Summit

I was invited to speak at the Michigan Creative Educators Summit organized by The DeWitt Creativity Group at the Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum at Michigan State University. It was an amazing morning (sadly I could not stay for the entire day). What was most amazing and exciting was listening to local school students who presented the creative work they have been doing. Here are my slides from my presentation, for the record.
