I initially wanted to do the inquiry project on experiential learning, so during the short practicum, I tried to include different demonstrations and activities for students to observe the concepts in action. I found it helped students understand the concepts better, and students seemed more engaged and excited for class. However, I also noticed how much more time it would take and how hard it was to balance finishing the curriculum and student understanding.
Therefore, for the inquiry project, Elsa, Jason L, and I decided to learn more about what experiential learning is, as well as the pros and cons of experiential learning.
In today's class, we did some initial research on what experiential learning is, and we found that there are a lot of different forms of experiential learning, including project-based learning, labs, demonstrations, simulations, and many more, so we were planning to split up and each explore the forms we are most interested in.
