The Teachers Guild

The Teachers Guild is a professional community dedicated to empowering educators to imagine creative solutions to the biggest challenges in education today.

An initiative of IDEO’s Design for Learning Studio and Riverdale Country School, the Guild encourages educators to use design thinking to bring their ideas to life through coaching and idea sharing. Coaches leverage their “Design Thinking Superpowers”—strengths such as brainstorming, synthesis, and prototyping—to guide the development of ideas and train educators to harness their own creativity. Educators can share their ideas and explore those of others through the Guild’s online solutions platform or by participating in Collaborations—large-scale projects that invite educators to brainstorm together and design solutions through a multistage process. From opportunities to plug into their latest projects to practical teaching tips and insights, The Teachers Guild’s website has plenty to offer.
