In the world of experiential learning there is a lot of talk about theory and philosophy; about what experiential learning is and what it is not, the benefits of experiential learning, and the purpose of it.
But the most common question that I get from educators is not about experiential learning in theory but about experiential learning in practice. How do I practice experiential learning with my k12 students? What is an experiential learning activity? What are experiential learning activity types? What approach or experiential learning activity is the best fit for me and my students? How do I facilitate experiential learning in my classroom and beyond? These are the questions that this blog post is going to get at. This post is all about my favorite experiential learning activities.

But how do you use personal learning plan templates? Let's dive in.
