imaginement ® grow imagination~drive appreciative change
imaginement® developed and tested in college classrooms and managment workshops for over 15 years, is a process-oriented guided-inquiry method for transformational change. As an assessment tool, this arts-based approach demonstrates the attentional science capacities--both individual and team--the ability to move beyond literal seeing to perceive and actualize patterns that spark both ideation and innovation. It has applications both in STEAM and business.

How many blogs do you read regularly?
Much of today’s most interesting, innovative and passionate writing about museums and galleries is hidden away in hundreds of carefully-crafted museum blogs. And all too little of this content enters into mainstream museum discourse.
Over 75 blogs: transforming the museum experience
The Museum Blog Book brings together a collection which reflects fresh thinking and practice in and about museums. Whether the authors are from world-class institutions like MoMA, the Smithsonian, the British Museum, or the V&A - or are independent professionals or volunteers - they all share practical experience aimed at improving (and often transforming) the museum experience.
New technologies
In five sections, The Museum Blog Book explores every key area of museum operation: from managing and collecting, to learning, interpreting and visiting. The content is both rich and concise. And - reflecting its online origins - the application of new technologies is explored throughout.
