Looking for a little help building a fuller chronology of Imaginal
Education approaches and curriculum application examples (not 1 time events)

Not about facilitation and planning, but about teaching imaginal learning
both depth inquiry & designing/creating innovations from preschool to adult
education. Three Imaginal Education Approaches

   - Seminar approach
   - Action-research project (like a PSU)
   - Simulation (like Training Inc and Machakos)




Can you add some more approaches or educational curricula to the Global
Archives?

2010s Recent Chronology of Aproaches and learning curriculum

   - *John Oyler:  2010 Arizona Partners in Participation, Arizona
   Community Youth Resources*
   - *Gilles: JWM Legacy Project* In 2011 Jack did a skype call at Litibu
   on JWM Legacy
   - *Addington & Berdgall et al: Accelerate 77 Action Based Community
   Development Project* In 2011-2 Jim Addingtion and Terry Bergdall  used a
   combination of depth inquiry seminars and intern action research with
   university class interns to build the Accelerate 77 Chicago neighborhoods
   project. Write up by Karen Snyder
   - *Gilles Social Process Triangle Research 2014 *Jack did an action
   research project partially online and onsite using google documents and a
   google hangout.
   - Phillbrook: Social Process Triangle Applications, Taiwan
   - Weybright: Nepal School Photo-Story School Project TRC School
   Kathmandu and ICE School New York City
   - Wiegel: Online Book Studies: ReInventing Organizations, So Far From
   Home; Bengals: *Buddha's Brain* seminar in Boston

Global Archives Imaginal Education Collection Chronology for New Website
1960s-1970s

   - *Summer 65 Research Assembly*  Oral history writeup David Scott. The
   Scotts and the Fishels were tasked by Mathews to build the 1st Summer
   Program in 1965 and they meet as peers and adapted the CFLC curriculum +
   some of the 5th City research to that task.
   - *Advanced ITI Hong Kong* (no record in the Archives) where David said
   there was seminar inquiry but also for local church cadres in SE Asia a lot
   of very specific PSUs on moving local churches forward - I guess beginning
   with something like the Lynch gridding model.

1980s 1990s

   - *Westside Leadership* John Cock, Karen Snyder created a 1 day
   orientation for community leaders of ICA methods
   - *Training Inc* By the 1980s both approaches were used in Training Inc
   for direct instruction, for doing world-of-work assignments inside a
   context. A 3rd imaginal education approach -simulation of a business was
   also developed. There were as many as 9 independent Training Inc in
   operation.
   - *Machakos Simulation Game* Sue Wegner LaDonna Wagner developed and
   delivered a 4 hour board game used in Universities and USAID and ICA events
   to simulate local village development and replication
   - I*maginal Education Methods* in 1990 OliveAnn Slotta wrote a book
   Seminar approach for classroom teachers,
   - *Project Based Inquiry *one on the Project Based Inquiry
   (action-research) approach


Any suggestions for a more simple form to commission and or document a
seminar or a project? If you have one, I'd like to write it up and include
it.
