Imagination and creative teaching approaches are increasingly important across all higher education disciplines, not just the arts. Investigating the role of imagination in teaching and learning in non-arts disciplines, this book shows that a lack of clarity about what imagination in h igher education looks like impedes teachers fostering their students’ creativity. Drawing on three ethnographic studies from physics, history and finance courses, it explores successful strategies educators can use to encourage their students’ imagination, and how students experience learning when it is focussed on engaging their imagination.
