Experiential Learning is where theory meets action. In other words, learning by doing.
To create a firm foundation of experiential learning at 91探花, the unit performed a value proposition exercise to determine their customers and support for each group. The EL unit will develop, connect, and support students, partners, faculty, and the curriculum process.
91探花 learners are prepared for success.
Every student will have the opportunity to learn through meaningful experiences that are intentional, formal, and reflective while connecting the classroom to the job market.
At 91探花, we recognize experiential learning in a robust framework around the following learning strategies:
Foundational Awareness
Curriculum-Connected Classroom Experiences
Active Exploration
Deeper Engagement in Industry-Specific Experiences
Work Integrated Learning
Direct Industry-Specific Experiential Learning (Work Integrated Learning)
