This booklet is a practical guide; it brings together the thoughts and experiences of the editors and colleagues across the UK who use LEGO bricks, or the LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® method to develop student learning, academic and professional practice and research. It has been produced as a resource for academic developers and others who would like to start using such approaches in their own higher education contexts but need some additional ideas. While it celebrates the LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® approach it makes a clear distinction between this method and other activities inspired by its principles and practices. LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® has territory in common with other creative methodologies which also use materials, metaphor and story. Suggestions are made as to how such other activities may be intertwined with the use of LEGO. LEGO® and LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® are trademarks of the LEGO Group.
