Publications

 

We receive many requests for information about Imaginative Education, and for publications that address various aspects of educational theory and practice from our perspective. We thought it worthwhile pulling together a list of items published in the last two or three years by various IERG members. We will try to make as many of these available as possible over the next few months, either by free download, sale at-cost, or by links to where they may be accessed in one form or another. Many, of course, can be found from the information below. Please let us know about any items we may have missed.
