Herman and Mandell's "Experiential Learnings Revised"
Abstract
PLAIO is pleased to include this resource. Our overview is as follows.
In Vol. 2, No. 1 (2015) of the Journal of Learning for Development - JL4D, authors Lee Herman and Alan Mandell contributed, "Experiential Learnings Revised," which offers some new ways of thinking about the learning/experience connection. From the published abstract: "The proposition is challenged that experience and learning are separate. It is argued that all experience is necessarily learning, and that any object of experience may disclose unlimited learnings in both extent and profundity. The implications of these claims are examined for teaching and learning, for the openness of the academy and for social justice."
