About this listen

Beyond the Worksheet is the podcast for educators who are ready to break free from busywork and reimagine what real learning looks like. Hosted by Dr. Jess Laine, a passionate educator and researcher, each episode explores innovative, student-centered teaching methods that go deeper than the surface—from discovery learning and project-based instruction to inquiry, creative assessment, and more.

Whether you’re a classroom teacher, school leader, or education student, you’ll gain practical strategies, research-based insights, and honest conversations about what works (and what doesn’t) in today’s classrooms.

Because worksheets have their place—but learning should go beyond them.
