The Effects Of Experiential Learning: An Examination Of Three Styles Of Experiential Education Programs And Their Implications For Conventional Classrooms, Mary Pizarchik

Theses Digitization Project

Using methodologies of interviews and observation, this study focuses on three distinctive and successful kinds of experiential education: a summer arts program, an outdoor science program and a wilderness education program. The project applies insights from the programs to the central question of this thesis: How can experiential learning be utilized within the traditional classroom given the constraints of the No Child Left Behind Law and standardized teaching?
