Frequently Asked Questions

    • Yes. The first thing I ask when a school is offering professional development is “how long has the person been out of the classroom?” I find the most effective PD usually comes from those who are not far away from their classroom teaching experience. 

    • Yes! Here’s a link to the Services page. If there is something you might be interested in that doesn’t quite fit those offerings, please reach out via email.

    • Yes! I’ve done workshops on social media and generative A.I. as they’ve come up. As we know, these things change fast, and education about these topics need to change fast as well. Please reach out if you have something specific in mind. 

Testimonials

  • "The workshop Rob Greenfield led with the NSHS History Department on media literacy had both an immediate and lasting positive impact.

    Rob not only helped us understand the scope of the misinformation problem but also equipped us with concrete tools to teach students how to recognize and evaluate false or misleading information. Many teachers continue to use strategies he introduced, such as lateral reading, in their classes. Most importantly, Rob prompted us to think and talk about an essential skill we hadn’t previously addressed directly in our curriculum. Finally, he is an outstanding presenter: engaging, clear, and genuinely funny, which made the session both enjoyable and memorable.”

  • "I'm happy to recommend Rob’s Digital Media Literacy Curriculum, developed by an educator I’ve had the pleasure of working with at conferences over the years.

    I've seen how Rob’s approach engages students in understanding both the opportunities and challenges of today’s digital landscape, helping them think critically about the media they consume and create. His work empowers young people to become responsible, informed, and thoughtful digital citizens—a skill set that’s never been more essential.”

  • "Rob's presentation on social media use was timely and exactly what was needed to help students understand the impact social media has on their lives.

    He delivered the content in a way that was relatable and grounded in real examples that resonated with our students. His ability to balance research-based information with practical strategies made the presentation not only informative but also practical and useful. Students walked away with a clearer awareness of how their online behaviors shape their well-being, relationships, and future opportunities.”

  • "Taking the AI PD at Thrive with Rob Greenfield was by far the best use of my time that day.

    I have felt many different ways about AI use. I have fluctuated from being very against it to incorporating it into my professional practice to it being the bane of my existence as an English teacher. As a result of the workshop, I have a greater sense of agency and I have changed my own practice around the use of AI. This is a necessary tool for all educators to best arm their own students with practical knowledge to foster their own critical thinking and decision making in using AI.”
