Many of us – Jim Campbell, Marilyn Miller Oyler, Ann Harrison Avery, Kay Ent Lush, Jeanette Marks Stanfield, Robertson Work, Gordon Harper and I  – became committed to IE and returned to our respective school situations to launch what we then called “image explosions” in our classrooms each day.  Our gifted pedagogues were Lidona Wagner (then, Donna McCleskey), Pat Scott and Sue Burdick.  Most of our cohort ended up as members of the OE.

Here are two links from that program.  It may be also that Jim Campbell touches on this in his autobiography/memoir.

May I suggest Charles Allen Lingo, Mike May, Marie Sharp, Elise and George Packard, Dierdre Dowsett, Tim Karpoff, Teresa Lingafelter as resources.

There were comparable IE grounded summer camps offered in Australia, one of which Ann Duffy and I led in 1971.  Likely the “files” of these would be difficult to gather, but you could do interviews to learn about the conceptual frameworks.

> 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.
