3. What is Experiential Education?
Experiential learning denotes two different types of learning:
Experiential learning by yourself
Learning from experience by yourself might be called “nature’s way of learning”.
“education that occurs as a direct participation in the events of life”.
Learning through reflection on everyday experiences.
Experiential education
A philosophy and a methodology in which educators purposefully engage with learners in direct experience and focused reflection in order to increase knowledge, develop skills, and clarify values.
Principles of experiential learning are used to design experiential education programs.

4. Preceptor Role
An experiential educator’s, or a preceptor’s, role is to organize and facilitate direct experiences of phenomenon under the assumption that this will lead to genuine (meaningful and long-lasting) learning.
