  • What people are saying about Imaginative Education

    It’s great stuff! I was exposed to it through the article in Educational Leadership and I am now reading the book. It makes so much sense! Thank you for your great work! Dave Bell (Texas)

    When I started to use IE several years ago now, that I tried it out in a few lessons here and there, was amazed at the success and then began to look for other areas and subjects in which I could use the Lesson Planning Frameworks and other aspects of the theory. Pamela Hagen.

    I am just back home after a great pro-day and still reeling from all that I learned from your workshop. Pamela Walker (Victoria, B.C.)

    I've been having a great deal of success with IE in the classroom. I taught grade 5 last year using IE-based concepts and had a GREAT year. I'm teaching kindergarten this year and using the concepts again - so far so fabulous! Mary Mulleady, (Teacher, Surrey.)

    2nd IRNIE Meeting

    last modified 2008-07-22 23:35

    During the 5th International Conference on Imagination and Education, two hours were set aside to meet specifically with academic researchers (faculty, postdocs, students, and staff) whose work engages with issues of imagination and education. Chaired by Dr. Sean Blenkinsop

    2nd IRNIE Meeting

    2007-Conference

    The session began with a review of IRNIE initiatives as they have developed over the previous twelve months. Participants had the opportunity to explore particular projects and themes (including the development of curriculum and pedagogy, the education of marginalized groups, and teacher preparation) in greater detail in smaller groups,with a view to developing new forms of collaboration. The session closed with a discussion of the network's ongoing development, including plans to hold conferences and workshops in various parts of the world.


    Subsequently, the 6th International Conference on Imagination and Education was held in Canberra Australia in January 2008.  In addition, a further grant was received by the IERG team to facilitate international meetings which are in the planning stages.
