How? Through a collaborative process of
cooperatively working with other educators,
using creative ideas developed by them and by
me – Craig Rusbult, an enthusiastic educator
with a PhD in Curriculum & Instruction –
during life on a road less traveled.
I'm an enthusiastic educator, currently am especially
excited about two kinds of improvising, to solve problems
and to make music with an intuitive-and-effective way for
doing Music Improvising — making harmonious melodies
by using a keyboard that highlights chord-notes with
logical colorizing (red, blue, green) — so we can help
older people (in social centers & living facilities) and
younger people (in K-12 schools) enjoy music in new
ways when they improve their musical improvising.
{ and their conversational improvising }
And I'm always excited about problem solving, as
in my seminar for OSU's Engineering Education.

Above and below are aerial photos of my UW Cities, where
I attended UW-FarWest (in Seattle) and UW-MidWest (in Madison),
enjoyed both of these wonderful cities. I moved to the first in September 1970
and got spring fever, with everything green and beautiful, smelling earthy after each
rain, appreciating the blendings of gray and sunshine, blue sky and white clouds.
Seattle was my first real city, by contrast with the vast megalopolis of SoCal,
where my old home city (Anaheim) blended into its neighbors on all sides.
Moving to Anaheim (family home, 1962-2020) was exciting yet comfortable,
then Seattle was a fun adventure, and so was Madison. And now Columbus!
