Call for Papers – 2016 Conference

NOTE: DEADLINE EXTENDED TO JULY 1, 2016

Imagination exists in the space between perception and understanding. It is the source of empathy, as we are reminded to put ourselves in someone else’s shoes. We imagine ourselves as members of communities that stretch beyond our local surroundings, and we lose ourselves in the fictional adventures of dramatic characters living in extraordinary times. Imagination is a source of great wonder and the stuff of innovation and creation, and yet we seem to pay little attention to nurturing imagination in education, instead putting emphasis on knowledge above all else.
