Bill Prodman Quotes in Journal
of Experiential Education
Bill Prodman, in the August ‘92 issue of the Journal of Experiential
Education, presents that “for a person to learn experientially, a teaching
routing must include all four learning styles: concrete experience,
reflective observation, abstract conceptualization and active experimentation.
In other words, the whole person is addressed. Also, a student must
have an emotional investment in the experience and continues, not because
he/she is engaged emotionally, owns the experience, and the teacher
is out of the way.”
