Empowering educators to reimagine what’s already in place, bringing purposeful strategies, meaningful connections, and impactful practices that naturally drive student growth.
At IntegratED, we believe great teaching is about making what you already do more meaningful. Founded by Megan Diede and Kara Rigsby, two educators who have lived the realities of the classroom, IntegratED is built on a simple truth: when teachers feel confident, supported, and connected to their purpose, students feel it too. Our work helps schools create purposeful, engaging learning experiences through practical strategies, real-world connections, and the Pathways to Learning. We take the overwhelm out of instruction and replace it with clarity, creativity, and impact. When educators thrive, students grow, and entire school communities elevate together.

No two schools are alike. That is why every partnership with IntegratED is customized. We take the time to understand your staff, curriculum, and culture before designing professional learning that meets your exact needs.
Through district-wide initiatives, school-based workshops, or conference keynotes, we ensure educators leave with strategies they can use the very next day. Our workshops, long-term consulting, and keynotes provide practical tools and ideas that educators can apply immediately in any grade, any school, and any classroom.
This personalized approach sets IntegratED apart. We do not deliver one-size-fits-all sessions; we design professional learning experiences that align with each school’s unique goals, culture, and needs, ensuring lasting impact long after the session ends.
Every educator knows what matters most.
Systems and expectations are aligned across classrooms.
Teachers and students feel seen, supported, and inspired.
Imagine classrooms where students are actively engaged, teachers feel confident in their instructional decisions, and teams work together to make learning more meaningful. That is what happens when we design with intention.
Through the IntegratED approach, educators learn to use their curriculum with purpose, create multiple pathways into learning, and make intentional instructional shifts that help students connect with content.
The result? More meaningful learning experiences, stronger instructional decisions, and greater opportunities for students to think, engage, and grow.
Megan Diede brings energy, connection, and creativity to every stage, helping educators see their work through a fresh lens. Speaking to schools, districts, and organizations, Megan invites audiences to think differently about the way we connect people, students, and content, and to recognize that there is rarely just one way to reach the same destination. Through stories, practical ideas, and a few 1% shifts, Megan leaves audiences thinking differently about what they are already doing and excited about what could happen next.
Educators work through real standards, real curriculum, and real classroom challenges to design learning that naturally differentiates and deepens understanding, leading to student growth.
Working alongside leadership teams and educators, they support the implementation of engaging, pathway-driven instruction across classrooms. Their consulting focuses on alignment between standards, curriculum, instruction, and expectations, so great teaching doesn’t live in isolation.
Turning Classroom Lessons into Engaging Experiences Using the 7 Pathways of Learning
Teaching isn’t just about delivering lessons—it’s about creating experiences that inspire, engage, and transform student learning. ElevatED Educator is your guide to making every lesson meaningful, interactive, and unforgettable.
We work with educators across the entire K–12 spectrum. Strategies may look different in kindergarten than in high school, but the goal stays the same: create meaningful learning, provide multiple pathways, and help more students connect with the content. We tailor our work to the grade level, subject area, and needs of each school.
We work with classroom teachers, instructional coaches, school leaders, and district teams. If you want to strengthen lesson design, increase student engagement, or bring more purpose to your instruction, we meet you where you are and give you ideas you can use.
To us, instructional design means being intentional about how you plan lessons or units. Start with what students need to learn, then think about the experiences, pathways, and opportunities that will help them get there. When the purpose is clear, teachers can make smarter instructional choices and students have a clearer path into the learning.
We offer keynotes, workshops, conference sessions, coaching, virtual learning, and customized professional development for schools, districts, and organizations. Some schools need a great day of learning. Others want support that continues throughout the year. We work with you to figure out what makes the most sense for your teachers and your goals.
We believe professional learning should feel like great teaching. That means teachers should have opportunities to talk, move, collaborate, reflect, try something, and see how it could work in their own classrooms. We focus on practical ideas teachers can take back to their classrooms right away.
Absolutely. The same principles can support learning in ELA, math, science, social studies, electives, and specialized programs. The content changes, but the need for clear purpose, meaningful connections, and multiple pathways stays the same.
Every school is different, so we start with your goals and your current reality. Our work focuses on stronger lesson design, greater student engagement, more intentional instructional practices, and increased teacher confidence. Most importantly, we want the work to stick long after we leave the room.
Start with connection. Students engage when they see purpose, have a way into the learning, and have opportunities to participate in meaningful ways. Think about relevance, student choice, real-world connections, and multiple pathways to the same learning. We help teachers turn those ideas into practical classroom strategies.
