A Review of Experiential Learning as the Educational Construct

Abstract

Patrick Sim Puay-I

This paper highlights the various conceptual understandings of learning in practice, the various terms of andragogy and their particular systems that will reflect great educational implications. It will include a discussion of some of these learning perspectives, focusing upon their theoretical and practical strengths and limitations within applied and experiential contexts. The following needs further consideration: • Analysis of the learning perspectives. • Key underpinning questions that need to frame an analysis and interrogation of the concepts and practices of learning that foreground experiences. • Implications of the learning perspectives applied to my roles and practices. It is important to realize the implications and contributions of the learning concepts and to forge a bigger interactive picture between knowledge and experience on current and future biological lives. This monograph focuses and examines experiential learning through different lens that attempts to fill any unfulfilled pedagogical gaps in my work area.
