- Many studies believe that the very concept of
experiential learning is focused on the
here-and-now that can have serious implications
on what we take out of the overall experience. By

developing people as individuals. This is a fair
assessment as most experiences, in general, are
determined and controlled. - It can be argued in favour of experiential

learning brings to the table. It can effectively

people, whether young or old and see improvements
in confidence, self-esteem, personal
responsibility and maturity which are so elusive
when approached through conventional prescriptive
teaching and training methods alone. - Read more http//www.hgsfaridabad.org/
