The “Cone of Experience”
What is Dale’s Cone of Experience?
Each level of the cone above its base moves a learner a step
further away from real- life experiences, so experiences focusing
only on the use of verbal symbols are the furthest removed from
real life.
Motion pictures (also television) is where it is on the cone
because it is an observational experience with little or no
opportunity to participate or use senses other than seeing
and hearing.
an “editing” of reality
Disadvantages:
simplification leads to misconceptions, distorted
views, and incomplete pictures of reality no freedom to
handle expensive or fragile models, mock – ups,
specimens, etc.
