I wouldn't blame anyone for not knowing what this blog is about. Most of us have never heard of experiential education. As a profession it is quite young. Experiential education as defined by the Association for Experiential Education is;
a philosophy and methodology in which educators purposefully engage with learners in direct experience and focused reflection in order to increase knowledge, develop skills and clarify values.
For myself, experiential education is a powerful and impacting profession. In many regards it is quite noble, having a positive lifelong impact on an individuals life. In future post I hope to explore the ways in which experiential education has played a role in my life as a profession, in addition to reflecting on current issues that are relevant to this profession.
