make discoveries and experiment with knowledge themselves instead of only hearing or
reading about the experiences of others. Students also reflect on their experiences,
thus developing new skills, new attitudes, and new theories or ways of thinking.
The first stage, concrete experience (CE), is where the learner actively experiences
The second stage, reflective observation (RO), is when the learner consciously
The third stage, abstract conceptualization (AC), is where the learner attempts to

Elements
Experiential learning can exist without a teacher and relates solely to the
gained through both personal and environmental experiences. Kolb states that in order
to gain genuine knowledge from an experience, the learner must have four abilities:
- The learner must possess and use analytical skills to conceptualize the

chances to interact with the chemical environment. Learners who have a desire to
become businesspeople will have the opportunity to experience the manager position
Opportunities for creativity: There is always more than one solution for a problem
in the real world. Students will have a better chance to learn that lesson when they get

3. Deliver the lesson – make sure to deliver the content in a clear, coherent way so
