Benefits of Experiential Learning for Students

Why get involved in experiential learning?

  • The feedback students receive during EL projects is rapid, direct, and concrete
  • Student actions have consequences in the learning environment, making experiential learning authentic
  • EL assignments and activities allow for experimentation with new theories, behaviors, attitudes and skills
  • The learning environment more closely resembles the “real” world environment into which students will graduate
