WHAT WE DO

Research that moves. Stories that stick.

At The CRAFT, we transform complex educational research into accessible, engaging, and actionable stories that empower educators, inspire systems change, and shape future-ready learners.

We focus on doing the research and then sharing what works through useful and modern tools designed for today’s educators.

Your support helps us turn insights into inspiration — and classrooms into catalysts for tomorrow.

WHO WE ARE

We Believe

By connecting researchers, educators, institutions, and industry, we can showcase what works to move people and education forward.

Innovation without implementation is wasted.

Stories are the bridge between data and transformation.

Teachers are the change agents of tomorrow.

We are a storytelling engine, a partnership hub, and a national movement for future-ready learning.

PARTNERSHIP EVENT

The 2026 National Arts Integration and STEAM Conference

We’re partnering with The Institute for Arts Integration and STEAM to present this in-person event. This conference focuses on sharing what’s working now in K-12 education, specifically surrounding innovation, technology, and the arts.

Susan Riley

Executive Director

Too often, education research stays locked away in reports and never reaches the teachers and leaders who need it most. This leaves schools searching for answers and students unprepared for a changing world.

At The CRAFT, we do things differently: we study what really works in classrooms and share it through modern storytelling — podcasts, videos, and practical tools that teachers can use right away. Our goal is to make bold research clear, accessible, and impactful so schools, communities, and students are ready for the future.
