Experiential learning is a process that emphasizes learning through direct experience, personal reflection, and application to new situations, facilitated by teachers. Methods include field trips, storytelling, simulations, and role-playing, promoting active engagement and critical thinking. This approach aims to enhance understanding of concepts through practical, engaging activities while building social skills and personal growth.
