      Excellent job of relating Dale's cone to constructivism. 1 point to Sarah from Lori
  • When I read Dale’s Cone of Experience I was immediately reminded of constructivism in that they both provide the learners with a hands on, learner directed type experiences. According to Dale “[t]he base of the cone represents direct reality itself as we experience it firsthand

      Excellent note on Thorndike's foreshadowing programmed instruction. 1 point to Teresa from Lori I also like your statement regarding personalized instruction. I've read many references as to an advantage of distance learning in that it allows students to progress at their own pace.

  • In law school, the more advanced students can take a class in trial skills, where they gain experience by actually preparing a "case" for trial. By drafting documents, responses to documents, interviewing witnesses, arguing pre-trial motions and actually participating in a mock trial, these students gain skills that they will use in real world practice.

      1 point Sarah - I can attest this is a group learning experience no instructor can duplicate. As an Investigative Officer we charge mariners for negligence, misconduct, or violation of law/regulation. We also try our own cases against the mariner through an Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) (we the only governmental agency that allows non-lawyers to try cases). It is not in the realm of criminal and civil law as we only have to prove to a "preponderance" of the evidence vice "beyond a reasonable doubt" and most cases are prima facie. To try these cases an IO has to go to a Suspension and Revocation School where we go through the process (most of what Sarah said) from filing a Complaint, witness interviews, filing Motions, Discovery, and a mock trial with an ALJ. The instructors are "hands off" as one must digest the process because in three weeks we are "practicing." Most would not succeed in the field if this instruction were only given via PowerPoint. Sarah, it is great the law school has this class, as I understand, most law schools do not offer a course in procedure. Normally it (procedure) must be learned through reading and actual case experience. Could you, or would you, say this is a PBL type of experience (esp. if computer based precedent research is involved)?
