Events create concentrated experiences. Attendees engage deeply over a short period. This intensity builds relationships faster than any other format.

The event ladder moves attendees from free exposure to paid participation to premium experiences. Each event type serves a different rung.

EVENTS

Free Webinars as Top of Funnel

Free webinars attract new prospects. Deliver genuine value while demonstrating your expertise. End with a soft offer for next-step engagement.

Structure webinars to leak your methodology without giving everything away. Leave attendees wanting more.

Event Type Purpose
Free webinar Attract, educate
Paid workshop Deeper transformation

Paid Workshops

Paid workshops offer deeper transformation in 2-4 hours. Participants get focused learning and interaction. Price accessibly to encourage attendance.

Multi-Day Courses

Extended events (weekend workshops, week-long intensives) provide immersive experiences. These command higher prices and produce deeper results.

Conferences and Summits

Large events with multiple speakers and tracks. These can be produced solo or with partners. Conferences build community at scale.

Retreats and Masterminds

Top of the event ladder: multi-day retreats with limited attendance. Intimate, transformative, premium-priced. These create lifelong memories and relationships.

If you run events, map your offerings against this ladder. What rungs are missing? What could you add to serve attendees at different levels?

Creative student voice connects content to creativity. Students engaged in student voice activities actively use a variety of resources and methods to explore content and share their learning with authentic audiences.Student voice should not be restricted to the traditional presentation that is simply a display of copied images and connected text. Student presentations, class discussions, writing, and drawings are all great methods to engage students in our classrooms, but they cannot be the only way Future-Ready Teachers and Students engage in the content.


Today I wanted to share a collection of #EdTech resources that my PLN has helped me organize connected to creativity and student voice.

The best student activities support the development of different skills through a variety of different digital media resources. These media resources can include images, text, audio, interactive components, and video. 


We’ve selected and categorized some of our PLN’s favorite resources to support Creative Student Voice in this document.



Most of the resources in the document have interactive help tutorials built into the resource. Additionally, if you need help, a quick YouTube search will provide some nice tutorials for teachers and students.


We’ve also put together a creative visual design challenge document connected to some Google resources. These challenges could be adapted for any classroom or professional development experience.
