My experiential learning took place at East High School with 11th grade students. East High School is located at 1600 City Park Esplanade, Denver CO, 80206. The school is reachable at (720) 423-8300 or online at http://east.dpsk12.org/. The school is closely located off of Colfax and 17th (East High,n.d.). According to US News, East High School is ranked #19 in Colorado. The school has a student body of 2,500 students. In East High, 72% of the student body participate in AP classes, while also having
takes place and arises many issues. This article discusses “the effectiveness of experiential learning using the Workshop Activity for Gender Equity Simulation – Academic version (WAGES-Academic) to deliver gender inequity information” (Zawadzki, Danube, & Shields, 2012, P.605). Researchers formed a quantitative study by comparing the “WAGES-Academic to an Information Only condition (knowledge without experiential learning) and a Group Activity control condition” (Zawadzki et al., 2012, P.605).

plays an important role in language classroom. Besides, it gives more dynamics to the teaching-learning process, especially when students actively participate. This verbal interaction is realized in oral activities, like conversations. It is “one of the primary means by which learning is accomplished in classroom” (Hall, 2003). It shows that the classroom oral interaction is a reflection of the learning process. Moreover, language classroom interaction provides the facility for the students to use
I was originally planning on spending my time observing and participating in different museum locations, but with the two education classes I was taking, I also ended up learning a lot about different school settings as well. And what was most interesting was comparing them and seeing where the similarities were. I would have categorized them as schools and museums, but those would be false categories. I spent time at three different museums for my service hours, the Bangor Discovery Museum, the
published his learning theory model. He believed “learning is the process whereby knowledge is created through the transformation of experience” (Kolb 1984). His model included a four stage cycle where a learner engages in an activity, reflects on the encounter, gains skills or knowledge from the experience, and then implements the new abilities (Figure 1a). This is the process of experiential learning. It is an engaged and active process promoting learning by doing. The experiential learning model
East High School allowed the opportunity for my experiential learning by allowing me to work with their 11 th grade students. East High School is located at 1600 City Park Esplanade Denver CO, 80206.

According to US News, East High School is ranked #19 in Colorado. Having a student body of 2,500 students. In East High, 72% of the student body participate in
their views is that it involves experience of doing or practicing something. In Kolb’s model, the process of experiencing events occur after the active experiment of the abstract concept. Wallace also agrees with this view when he includes the ‘experiential knowledge’ that interacts with both schemata and the received knowledge that the trainees have into his reflective practice model. Not only that, Schon’s reflection on-action model also in the same way emphasising the importance of experience in
Another fundamental theory in which us teachers like to add to the students' learning is that of Kolb's - Experiential theory. He defines learning as a process in which someone learns through the experiences he encounters, thus, knowledge is added on because of this revolution. It is described as it works on four different levels which are presented as a cycle in which one reflects onto the other. The first step which is listed as the 'Concrete experience' - the real experience that is encountered
Sink, D (2008), claims that Instructional Design Models and Learning Theories are used after the needs of an organization have been identified (Sink, D. 2008). Instructional Systems Design Models provide designers effective ways to identify solutions to support the needs of an organization. This paper will discuss the characteristics of the Experiential Learning Model, Attention, Relevance, Confidence, Satisfaction Model, and the Gerlach and Ely Models along with providing a comparison and contrast
