Abstract: To utilize a process through which a learner constructs knowledge, skills, and value from direct experience brings relevance to our curriculum. Experiential learning operates under the premise that making discoveries and experimenting with knowledge puts students at the heart of learning through the hands of experience. Two first year teachers extended their classrooms by creating curriculum that challenged their students to apply prior knowledge, develop new skills, reflect upon these experiences, and contemplate how life is influenced by their thoughts and actions. As each teacher’s action research unfolded, it became obvious that using experiential learning provided opportunities for the students to gain a deeper understanding and appreciation for learning.

经验与教育 = Experience and education
John Dewey,玉珏 王,春来 朱 +2 more
- 01 Jan 2012
Abstract: Experience and Educationis the best concise statement on education ever published by John Dewey, the man acknowledged to be the pre-eminent educational theorist of the twentieth century. Written more than two decades after Democracy and Education(Dewey's most comprehensive statement of his position in educational philosophy), this book demonstrates how Dewey reformulated his ideas as a result of his intervening experience with the progressive schools and in the light of the criticisms his theories had received. Analysing both "traditional" and "progressive" education, Dr. Dewey here insists that neither the old nor the new education is adequate and that each is miseducative because neither of them applies the principles of a carefully developed philosophy of experience. Many pages of this volume illustrate Dr. Dewey's ideas for a philosophy of experience and its relation to education. He particularly urges that all teachers and educators looking for a new movement in education should think in terms of the deeped and larger issues of education rather than in terms of some divisive "ism" about education, even such an "ism" as "progressivism." His philosophy, here expressed in its most essential, most readable form, predicates an American educational system that respects all sources of experience, on that offers a true learning situation that is both historical and social, both orderly and dynamic.
