When are we neeeded? In expiential education there is a need to find balance in facilitaing only when needed. Much of what we do on rope courses or other settings, can be contrived experices. The participant, is purposely led to a metaphor. Yet, true learning does not come from the class room, it does not come from a contrived event. Learning that has a lasting impact comes from the experience.
"Teach only when cornered, otherwise let the people learn."
- Keith King
While we need to achives intended outcomes, finding the balance in the use of contivencies is crucial in having a real, meaningful experience.
