In recent years, cognitive psychology has supplied interesting analytical frameworks for the processes involved in the construction of knowledge at all levels of education, from kindergarten to college. In design teaching and for many decades theories have been proposed about design projects "methods" and "methodologies". However, only in recent years theoretical approaches to "creativity" and the creative process have been proposed and have started to be implemented in academic curricula, or as working methods (cocreation). Creativity, thus, has become an area of "focus" of research, with important implications on the design discipline. However, creativity, invention, imagination and fantasy simultaneously interact …

This paper investigated and discovered the differences that exist between craft artisans’ and design trainers’ in-depth cognitive levels during the use of the imaginative approach in a design training program. We employed a concept network method based on the associative concept dictionary to extract the verbalized thoughts of four craft artisans and four design trainers. We then identified semantic relationships based on factor analysis. Our findings revealed that craft artisans tended to activate lower in-depth cognitive levels and design trainers tended to generate deeper in-depth cognitive levels. Our study demonstrated that craft artisans tended to place greater focus on aspects …

People always considered that the imaginative capability is natural endowment; however, the authors considered that it could be inspired by the family and school education. The purpose of this research was to find a feasible way to inspire students' imaginative capability, and investigate the relationship between the students' imaginative capability to their family education and school education respectively through a devised experimental teaching.
