Educational imagery is a classroom teaching methodology that allows students to mentally isolate themselves and to use their natural abilities to daydream or fantasize in ways that accomplish educational objectives. Educational imagery is used to facilitate decision making, clarify values, memorize, incorporate behavioral outcomes of teaching, and reinforce cognitive concepts. The technique can help allied health students prepare for the clinical setting. The behavioral components, ethical concerns, and decision making that will occur in the clinical setting can be rehearsed in the classroom before the actual experience by guiding students' imagination. This article describes the nature of imagery and its sources, describes how to implement the strategy in the classroom, and gives examples of educational imagery strategies for the allied health disciplines.
教育意象是一种课堂教学方法，它能让学生在脑海中自我隔离，并运用自身的自然能力进行白日梦或幻想，从而实现教育目标。教育意象用于促进决策、明确价值观、记忆、融入教学的行为成果以及强化认知概念。该技术有助于健康相关专业的学生为临床环境做准备。通过引导学生的想象力，临床环境中将会出现的行为成分、伦理问题和决策可以在实际体验之前在课堂上进行演练。本文描述了意象的本质及其来源，介绍了如何在课堂上实施该策略，并给出了健康相关专业学科的教育意象策略示例。
