Experiential learning - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - 0 views

  • Aristotle once said, "The things we have to learn before we do them, we learn by doing them."
    • Michael Stout
       
      Similarly, the best way to learn something is to teach it.
  • as John Dewey pointed out experiential learning can often lead to "mis-educative experiences". The classic example of this is the lecture experience many students have in traditional education contexts. While the content of the course might be "physics" the experiential learning might be that "I hate physics". This is mis-educative as the student should have preferably learned "I hate lectures". Experiential learning therefore can be problematic as generalizations or meanings may be misapplied. There are countless examples of this in prejudice, stereotypes, and other related areas.

      Therefore the teacher's role is to ensure that mis-educative experiences are avoided. This leads to the question, how?
  • Confucius. "Tell me and i will forget, show me and i may remember, involve me and i will understand

      This quote has been attributed to other people too. I wish there was a reference here.

  • "You teach some by what you say, teach more by what you do, but most of all, you teach most by who you are."
    • Michael Stout
       
      Which makes teaching a dangerous occupation indeed ;)
  • Experiential learning requires no teacher and relates solely to the meaning making process of the individual's direct experience. However, though the gaining of knowledge is an inherent process that occurs naturally, for a genuine learning experience to occur, there must exist certain elements. According to David Kolb, an American educational theorist, knowledge is continuously gained through both personal and environmental experiences. [4] He states that in order to gain genuine knowledge from an experience, certain abilities are required: the learner must be willing to be actively involved in the experience; the learner must be able to reflect on the experience; the learner must possess and use analitical skills to conceptualize the experience; and the learner must possess decision making and problem solving skills in order to use the new ideas gained from the experience.
  • John Dewey pointed out, experiential learning can often lead to "mis-educative experiences."[6] In other words, experiences do not automatically equate learning. The classic example of this is the lecture experience many students have in formal educational settings. While the content of the course might be "physics" the experiential learning becomes "I hate physics." Preferably, the student should have learned "I hate lectures." Experiential learning therefore can be problematic as generalizations or meanings may be misapplied.

CTEG: Critical Questions - 1 views

  • Critical thinking is a set of values and cognitive strategies employed to rationally evaluate information for its potential usefulness and accuracy. In this regard, critical thinking covers three fields; Personal values embracing logic, reasoning, objectivity and internal consistency of information Skills and cognitive approaches that allow the individual to search for and evaluate different information sources An appreciation of the relationship between the application of accurate information in decision making and the probability of a predictable outcome
  • In an age of diverse media, especially with regards to the internet, information sources present confusing options. Not all information is equal. Teaching people to understand the context and cues associated with good information gives them the ability to make better informed decisions that will have the best chance of leading to those outcomes they wish for.
  • This places critical thinking at odds with philosophies that elevate some bodies of knowledge to being dogmatic and beyond question.
