Experiential Learning - Experience as the Source of Learning and Development - Grand Format

In this revised edition of Experiential Learning, David A. Kolb offers the most complete and up-to-date statement of Experiential Learning Theory (ELT), an approach that has shaped the fields of human learning and development for decades. Kolb adds new research and reflections at the end of each chapter, preserving his original theory while illuminating key advances and theoretical issues raised during the past 30 years.
After reviewing ELT's historical roots, Kolb turns to contemporary applications in education, organization and management development, and adult learning. Next, he introduces a structured model of the learning process based on two key dimensions : prehension and transformation. Kolb explores new linkages between ELT and modern research into neuroscience, learning styles, and personal types ; and introduces his improved Kolb Learning Style Inventory 4.0 assessment.
Finally, he shares important new insights into adult development, specialization in higher education, and integrative development for lifelong learning.
