Experiential Learning: A New Approach: New Directions for Adult and Continuing Education (J-B ACE Single Issue Adult & Continuing Education)

This volume presents discussions of a new comprehensive model of experiential learning for instructors of adults in formal educational programs. Two major messages are conveyed through these discussions. The first is that linking the conceptural foundations of adult and experimental learning to actual insturctional applications is key to effective practice. the second message is that paying attention to the assessment component of experiential learning is as important as the process of making choices about which methods and techniques should be selected to encourage learners to use and reflect on their own experiences.

This is the 62nd issue in Jossey-Bass quarterly report series New Directions for Adult and Continuing Education.
