UCET Podcast with Kiera Beddes25 Touko 2022

Creativity in the Classroom with Braxton Thornley and Becca Esplin

Welcome back to episode 9 of the UCET podcast, where we talk about all things Utah, education, and technology. In this episode, we got the chance to chat with Becca Esplin, edtech coach for Iron County and Braxton Thornley, secondary ELA teacher and school technology coach from Jordan District, about how they teach their students to use a variety of digital objects and exercise their creativity.

You can follow their work on Twitter - @edtechbyte for Becca, @BraxtonThornley for Braxton, and @KBeddes for Kiera. Kiera also referenced the book Originals by Adam Grant a couple times in this episode. You can check out the Amazon link for the book here.

Over the course of this episode, we discuss the following questions (and more!) with our guests:

How do you lead and model creativity?
Why should students be creating?
What role does feedback play in student creativity?

At the end of the episode, we take a minute to spotlight the amazing eMedia resource in Utah’s Online Library, EdcampUT happening in June, and the LAST #utedchat of the year. Next season’s episodes of the UCET podcast will start again in September.
