Experiential Learning Activities and Resources from Experiential Learning Depot:

What are some examples of experiential learning?

You've come to the right place for experiential learning activities and teaching tools! Experiential education is student-led, gets learners involved, is personalized, collaborative, and includes feedback and reflection as essential components of the experience. Our resources provide the materials for educators to facilitate these experiences in the classroom, in homeschool environments, in the community, on field trips, traveling around the world, and beyond. 

I have several areas of focus that all fall under experiential learning including self-directed project-based learning activities, personalized learning, 21st-century skill-building, experiential science, and educational travel.

Experiential Science Resources

I was a high school experiential science teacher for 10 years, so have built a nice portfolio of experiential science resources that engage students in challenging and abstract life science concepts. Here are some of my favorites.
One of the reasons I got into experiential learning is because of my background and experience working in the field. Get inspiration from my blog post on why I became an experiential educator, and how that led to my career as a high school ecology teacher with an experiential philosophy.
