EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING THEORY
Experiential learning is an active process which
engages the learner. Individuals are encouraged to
work things out for themselves, they are guided to
and through their learning rather than being
taught. As the name suggests, experiential
learning involves learning from experience. The
theory was proposed by psychologist David
Kolb who was influenced by the work of other
theorists including John Dewey, Kurt Lewin,
and Jean Piaget.
The first stage is concrete learning, where the
learner encounters a new experience or
reinterprets an existing experience.
This is followed by the next stage, reflective
observation, where the learner reflects on the
experience on a personal basis.
After this comes abstract conceptualization,
where the learner forms new ideas, or modifies
existing abstract ideas, based on the reflections
arising from the reflective observation stage.
Lastly, the active experimentation stage is
where the learner applies the new ideas to his
surroundings to see if there are any
modifications in the next appearance of the
experience.
Here are brief descriptions of the four Kolb learning
styles:
Diverging (feeling and watching – Concrete
Experience/Reflective Observation): They prefer to
watch rather than do, tending to gather information and
use imagination to solve problems. . People with the
diverging style prefer to work in groups, to listen with an
open mind and to receive personal feedback.
Assimilating (watching and thinking- Abstract
Conceptualization and Reflective Observation): . Ideas
and concepts are more important than people. These
people require good clear explanation rather than a
practical opportunity. People with this style prefer
readings, lectures, exploring analytical models, and
having time to think things through.
Converging (doing and thinking- Abstract
Conceptualization/Active Experimentation):
They prefer technical tasks, and are less
concerned with people and interpersonal
aspects. People with a converging style like to
experiment with new ideas, to simulate, and
to work with practical applications.
Accommodating (doing and feeling- Concrete
Experience/Active Experimentation): The
Accommodating learning style is 'hands-on,'
and relies on intuition rather than logic
Implications of Experiential Learning in
Education and Development
Experiential learning enables children to
pursue their own areas of interest and to work
through problems as they arise in real-life
situations.... Play enables children to act out
alternative scenarios and to find different ways
to express social or emotional difficulties. With
the right teaching strategies, experiential
learning encourages children to be
exploratory, expressive and communicative.
“Real World” –Experiential learning takes data
and concepts and makes them “real” by
applying them to hands-on tasks, with real
results.
For example, students who major in Chemistry
may have chances to interact with the
chemical environment. Learners who have a
desire to become businesspeople will have the
opportunity to experience the manager
position.
Opportunity for Creativity – In the “real
world,” problems often have more than one
solution, and “two heads are better than one.”
Experiential learning enables the student to
engage the creative portions of their brains
and seek their own unique and most fulfilling
solution to a hands-on task. This creativity, and
the variety of results produced, enriches the
classroom – and society – as a whole.
Opportunity for Reflection – Reflection is an
integral component of the experiential learning
process. They analyze how their actions
affected the outcome, and how their outcome
may have varied from other students’. This
analysis helps them better understand how the
concepts learned can be applied to other,
varied circumstances.
Mistakes Become Valuable – Experiential
learning involves trial by error. As students
engage in hands-on tasks, they find that some
approaches work better than others. They
discard the methods that don’t work, but the
act of trying something and then abandoning it
– ordinarily considered a “mistake” – actually
becomes a valuable part of the learning
process. Thus, students learn not to fear
mistakes, but to value them.
Accelerated Learning – The act of practicing a
skill strengthens the neural connections in our
brain, making us, in effect “smarter.” Hands-on
activities require practice, problem-solving and
decision-making. As student engagement
increases through these processes, learning
accelerates and retention improves.
Improved Attitudes toward Learning – The
personal nature of experiential learning
engages the students’ emotions as well as
enhancing their knowledge and skills. When
students see the concrete fruits of their labor,
they experience greater gratification and pride,
thus enhancing their enthusiasm for continued
learning.
Guides Students toward College Majors and
Careers – Many experiential learning projects
are career-oriented, because they are, by
nature, grounded in “real-world” activities.
Through these activities, students start to
discover and develop their own skills, aptitudes
and passions. This discovery in turn sets them
on a more defined path to college and careers.
Prepares Students for Real Life – Most experiential
learning activities are communal in nature, with
students working in groups. Through these team
projects, students learn to work more effectively
together, developing a plan of action, and utilizing
the unique qualities of each team member. In turn,
the students learn real-life leadership skills, as well as
how to apply critical thinking and adapt to changing
circumstances.
The old adage sums up experiential learning
perfectly:
I hear and I forget, I see and I remember, I do and I
understand
SAFETY AND SECURITY IN THE
LEARNING ENVIRONMENT
Four General Principles of the UNRC
(UNITED NATIONS CONVENTION ON THE RIGHTS OF THE CHILD)
Central to the provisions of the UNCRC are the so called “General Principles” which play a
fundamental role in realizing all the rights stipulated in the convention. This includes four of the
fifty-four articles, to wit:
Non-discrimination (Article 2). One general principle as identified by the UNCRC is that all
children should enjoy their rights and should never be subjected to any discrimination. The
obligation to provide equality of opportunities among children is expressed in Article 2, the first
paragraph of which reads: "States parties shall respect and ensure the rights set forth in the
present convention to each child within their jurisdiction without discrimination of any kind,
irrespective of the child's parents or legal guardian, race, color, sex, language, religion, political
or other opinion, national, ethnic or social origin, poverty, disability, birth or other status."
Best interest of the child (Article 3). Best interests of the Children, especially when they are very
young, are vulnerable and need special support to be able to enjoy their rights fully. How could
children be granted equal rights and at the same time the necessary protection? Part of the
answer lies in the principle of the best interest of the child, formulated in Article 3:1. "In all
actions concerning children whether undertaken by public or private social welfare institution,
courts of law, administrative authorities or legislative bodies, the best interest of the child shall
be a primary consideration."
Right to life survival and development (Article 6). The principle most
directly related to children's economic and social rights is formulated
in the right to life article. The article goes further than just granting
children the right not to be killed; it includes the right to survival and
development which is formulated in Article 6:2 and states thus:
"State parties shall ensure to the maximum extent possible the
survival and development of the child."
Right to be heard (Article 12). A crucial dimension of the convention
is expressed through another principle, the one about respecting the
views of the child. In order to know what is actually in the interest of
the child it is logical to listen to him or her. The principle is
formulated in Article 12:1 which states that "States parties shall
assure to the child who is capable of forming his or her own views
the rights to express those views freely in all matters affecting the
child, the view of the child being given due weight in accordance
with the age and maturity of the child.
Four Themes of the UNCRC Articles
There are 41 articles in the UNCRC which details different types of
right, while the rest of the articles stipulate on how duty bearers
must work together to ensure the fulfillment of these rights. The
rights are not ranked in order of importance; instead they interact
with one another to form one integrated set of rights. A common
approach is to group these articles together under the following
themes:
Survival rights: include the child’s right to life and the needs that are
most basic to existence, such as nutrition, shelter, an adequate living
standard, and access to medical services.
Development rights: include the right to education, play, leisure,
cultural activities, access to information, and freedom of thought,
conscience and religion.
Protection rights: ensure children are safeguarded against all forms
of abuse, neglect and exploitation, including special care for refugee
children; safeguards for children in the criminal justice system;
protection for children in employment; protection and rehabilitation
for children who have suffered exploitation or abuse of any kind.
Participation rights: encompass children's freedom to express
opinions, to have a say in matters affecting their own lives, to join
associations and to assemble peacefully. As their capacities develop,
children should have increasing opportunity to participate in the
activities of society, in preparation for adulthood.

BULLYING:
Researches and literatures on bullying defined the concept
comprehensively but what is common among the
definitions is the emphasis on these three conditions which
when met qualifies the act as bullying:
The action is unwanted and aggressive: The intention is
hurtful in nature and the behavior is unwanted by the
victim.
The action can or is repeated over time: The action occurs
more than once or the person or group of individuals target
the victim repeatedly.
An imbalance of power or strength exists: The victim feels
powerless to do anything.
Fig 1. Three Features of Bullying
Bullying and its Forms: The Anti-Bullying Act of 2013
The schools are often regarded as the learners’ second
home and as such, are expected to promote child
protection and safeguard the safety of its child-learners. It
is their primary responsibility to do much in terms of the
intervention if not the total prevention of the occurrences
of bullying. These mandates are stipulated in Republic Act
No. 10627 or the Anti-Bullying Act of 2013 which was
signed into law by President Benigno Aquino III on
September 12, 2013.
Section 3b – b.1 of the Implementing Rules and
Regulations (IRR) of R.A. No. 10627 specifies that
“Bullying” refers to any severe, or repeated use by one or
more students of a written, verbal or electronic expression,
or a physical act or gesture, or any combination thereof,
directed at another student that has the effect of actually
causing or placing the latter in reasonable fear of physical
or emotional harm or damage to his property; creating a
hostile environment at school for the other student;
infringing on the rights of another student at school; or
materially and substantially disrupting the education
process or the orderly operation of a school; such as, but
not limited to, the following:
1. Any unwanted physical contact between the bully and
the victim like punching, pushing, shoving, kicking,
slapping, tickling, headlocks, inflicting school pranks,
teasing, fighting and the use of available objects as
weapons;
2. Any act that causes damage to a victim’s psyche and/or
emotional well-being;
3. Any slanderous statement or accusation that causes the
victim undue emotional distress like directing foul
language or profanity at the target, name-calling,
tormenting and commenting negatively on victim’s
looks, clothes and body;
4. “Cyber- bullying” or any bullying done through the use
of technology or any electronic means. The term shall
also include any conduct resulting to harassment,
intimidation, or humiliation, through the use of other
forms of technology, such as, but not limited to texting,
email, instant messaging, chatting, internet, social
media, online games, or other platforms or formats as
defined in DepED Order No. 40, s. 2012; and
5. Any other form of bullying as may be provided in the
school’s child protection or anti-bullying policy,
consistent with the Act and this IRR.
b1. The term “bullying” shall also include:
“Social bullying” – refers to any deliberate, repetitive and
aggressive social behavior intended to hurt others or to
belittle another individual or group.
“Gender-based bullying” – refers to any act that humiliates
or excludes a person on the basis of perceived or actual
sexual orientation and gender identity (SOGI).
Prohibited Acts under the Anti-Bullying Act
Provided in Section 5 of the IRR of R.A. No. 10627 are the
different prohibited acts which reads, “Consistent with
Section 3 of the Act, the anti-bullying policy shall prohibit:
1. Bullying at the following:
a. school grounds;
b. property immediately adjacent to school grounds;
c. school-sponsored or school-related activities, functions
or programs whether on or off school grounds;
d. school bus stops;
e. school buses or other vehicles owned, leased or used
by a school;
f. school buses or school services privately-owned but
accredited by the school.
2. Bullying through the use of technology or an electronic
device or other forms of media owned, leased or used by
a school.
3. Bullying at a location, activity, function or program that is
not school-related and through the use of technology or
an electronic device or other forms of media that is not
owned, leased or used by a school; and
4. Retaliation against a person who reports bullying, who
provides information during an investigation of bullying,
or who is a witness to or has reliable information about
bullying.
Duty of Schools to Prevent or Address Bullying:
1. adopt policies to address the existence of bullying.
2. . Copies of the anti-bullying policies must be provided to
students and their parents or guardians
3. schools are mandated to form a Child Protection
Committee (CPC), which shall also serve as the Anti-
Bullying Committee. Said committee is responsible for
implementing the school’s anti-bullying policies and
monitoring cases of bullying.
4. CPC must prescribe corresponding disciplinary penalties
for various acts of bullying
5. policies should contain a clear procedure for reporting and
investigating bullying incidents, including a mechanism for
anonymous reporting as well as the protection of the
person who reported the bullying.
6. Inclusion of rehabilitation program for the perpetrator and
counseling for the victims and his family.
7. the policies must include disciplinary penalty for
knowingly making a false accusation of bullying.
Failure to comply with these requirements will subject the
school and its personnel to administrative sanctions.
For public schools, the concerned personnel will be dealt
with administratively under pertinent civil service rules.
For private schools, failure to comply is a ground for
suspension or revocation of the permit or recognition of
the school.
Aside from these administrative liabilities, the schools,
their administrators, and teachers may also be held liable
for civil damages. Under Article 218 of the Family Code,
schools, their administrators, and teachers exercise special
parental authority over their minor students. As such, any
tort committed by their minor students, including bullying,
may be attributed to them if by their negligence, they fail
to prevent the same.

The Government sees to it that every learner is safe and
secured while at school and at home through the Child
Protection Policy. Republic Act 7610 provides penalties for
each violation and special protection against child abuse,
exploitation and discrimination (www.pcw.gov.ph). The
Department of Education (DepEd) has adopted the Child
Protection Policy, entitled DepEd Child Protection Policy.
This contains policy and guidelines on protecting children
in school from abuse, exploitation, discrimination, bullying
and other forms of abuse (www.deped.gov.ph). The DepEd
Order No. 40, s. 2012, signed by Secretary of Education,
BR. Armin A. Luistro, FSC, issues the enclosed DepEd Child
Protection Policy which took effect immediately after its
issuance. Study the content of the policy which is

The impact of discipline using punishment can
be harmful because it inflicts physical and
emotional pain. Here are the two ways of
controlling behavior through punishment:
A. Negative discipline – verbal disapproval like
giving harsh words or shouting at the person
and reprimands like suspensions, aggressive
policing and reactive strategies.
B. Corporal punishment – severe emotional or
physical pain like slapping, exposing the
student under the sun and kneeling in stones.

Criteria for Effective Discipline
According to Jane Nelsen
(www.positivediscipline.com) , there are five
criteria for effective discipline:
1. Helps children feel a sense of connection.
• The learner feels that he/she is important.
• There is the feeling of belongingness.
2. Is mutually respectful and encouraging.
• Learners need kind words.
• Teachers must be firm with their decisions.
3. Is effective long term.
• The child learns from his/her mistakes as checked
by the teachers.
• The child values the disciplinary measures that are
given.
4. Teaches important life and social skills.
• The learner develops values like respect, concern
for others, solving his/her own problems and
helpfulness to family and community.
5. Invites children to discover how capable they
are.
• Encourages learners to develop their skills and use
them well.
Positive Discipline Techniques
Teachers have their own way of handling
untoward behavior in the classroom. Here are
positive discipline techniques
(www.positivediscipline.com):
1. Set the classroom rules at the start of the
year.
2. Have consistent expectations.
3. Set goals at the beginning of class.
4. Appropriate behavior should be reinforced.
5. Remain neutral during conflicts.
6. Search for the root cause of the misbehavior.
7. Student dignity matters.
8. Create individual plans for students.
9. Use praise.
10. Model appropriate behaviors.
11. Provide students with different choices.
12. Remove objects in the environment that
can cause distractions.
13. Listen to students.
Benefits of Using Positive Discipline
1. Students show respect for the teachers.
2. Students are on task and engaged.
3. Less disciplinary measures are needed.
4. Fewer suspension and expulsions.
5. Students see rules as fair.
6. Attendance improves.
Using Rewards and Privileges System
Rewards and privileges can somehow control
behavior because students tend to behave and
actively participate in class to get the rewards
and avail the privileges. But over using this
technique for a long time can produce negative
effects like dependency on the rewards in order
for them to participate.

  • 1. EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING THEORY Experiential learning is an active process which engages the learner. Individuals are encouraged to work things out for themselves, they are guided to and through their learning rather than being taught. As the name suggests, experiential learning involves learning from experience. The theory was proposed by psychologist David Kolb who was influenced by the work of other theorists including John Dewey, Kurt Lewin, and Jean Piaget.
  • 2.
  • 3. The first stage is concrete learning, where the learner encounters a new experience or reinterprets an existing experience. This is followed by the next stage, reflective observation, where the learner reflects on the experience on a personal basis. After this comes abstract conceptualization, where the learner forms new ideas, or modifies existing abstract ideas, based on the reflections arising from the reflective observation stage.
  • 4. Lastly, the active experimentation stage is where the learner applies the new ideas to his surroundings to see if there are any modifications in the next appearance of the experience.
  • 5. Here are brief descriptions of the four Kolb learning styles: Diverging (feeling and watching – Concrete Experience/Reflective Observation): They prefer to watch rather than do, tending to gather information and use imagination to solve problems. . People with the diverging style prefer to work in groups, to listen with an open mind and to receive personal feedback. Assimilating (watching and thinking- Abstract Conceptualization and Reflective Observation): . Ideas and concepts are more important than people. These people require good clear explanation rather than a practical opportunity. People with this style prefer readings, lectures, exploring analytical models, and having time to think things through.
  • 6. Converging (doing and thinking- Abstract Conceptualization/Active Experimentation): They prefer technical tasks, and are less concerned with people and interpersonal aspects. People with a converging style like to experiment with new ideas, to simulate, and to work with practical applications. Accommodating (doing and feeling- Concrete Experience/Active Experimentation): The Accommodating learning style is 'hands-on,' and relies on intuition rather than logic
  • 7. Implications of Experiential Learning in Education and Development Experiential learning enables children to pursue their own areas of interest and to work through problems as they arise in real-life situations.... Play enables children to act out alternative scenarios and to find different ways to express social or emotional difficulties. With the right teaching strategies, experiential learning encourages children to be exploratory, expressive and communicative.
  • 8. “Real World” –Experiential learning takes data and concepts and makes them “real” by applying them to hands-on tasks, with real results. For example, students who major in Chemistry may have chances to interact with the chemical environment. Learners who have a desire to become businesspeople will have the opportunity to experience the manager position.
  • 9. Opportunity for Creativity – In the “real world,” problems often have more than one solution, and “two heads are better than one.” Experiential learning enables the student to engage the creative portions of their brains and seek their own unique and most fulfilling solution to a hands-on task. This creativity, and the variety of results produced, enriches the classroom – and society – as a whole.
  • 10. Opportunity for Reflection – Reflection is an integral component of the experiential learning process. They analyze how their actions affected the outcome, and how their outcome may have varied from other students’. This analysis helps them better understand how the concepts learned can be applied to other, varied circumstances.
  • 11. Mistakes Become Valuable – Experiential learning involves trial by error. As students engage in hands-on tasks, they find that some approaches work better than others. They discard the methods that don’t work, but the act of trying something and then abandoning it – ordinarily considered a “mistake” – actually becomes a valuable part of the learning process. Thus, students learn not to fear mistakes, but to value them.
  • 12. Accelerated Learning – The act of practicing a skill strengthens the neural connections in our brain, making us, in effect “smarter.” Hands-on activities require practice, problem-solving and decision-making. As student engagement increases through these processes, learning accelerates and retention improves.
  • 13. Improved Attitudes toward Learning – The personal nature of experiential learning engages the students’ emotions as well as enhancing their knowledge and skills. When students see the concrete fruits of their labor, they experience greater gratification and pride, thus enhancing their enthusiasm for continued learning.
  • 14. Guides Students toward College Majors and Careers – Many experiential learning projects are career-oriented, because they are, by nature, grounded in “real-world” activities. Through these activities, students start to discover and develop their own skills, aptitudes and passions. This discovery in turn sets them on a more defined path to college and careers.
  • 15. Prepares Students for Real Life – Most experiential learning activities are communal in nature, with students working in groups. Through these team projects, students learn to work more effectively together, developing a plan of action, and utilizing the unique qualities of each team member. In turn, the students learn real-life leadership skills, as well as how to apply critical thinking and adapt to changing circumstances. The old adage sums up experiential learning perfectly: I hear and I forget, I see and I remember, I do and I understand
  • 16. SAFETY AND SECURITY IN THE LEARNING ENVIRONMENT
  • 17. Four General Principles of the UNRC (UNITED NATIONS CONVENTION ON THE RIGHTS OF THE CHILD) Central to the provisions of the UNCRC are the so called “General Principles” which play a fundamental role in realizing all the rights stipulated in the convention. This includes four of the fifty-four articles, to wit: Non-discrimination (Article 2). One general principle as identified by the UNCRC is that all children should enjoy their rights and should never be subjected to any discrimination. The obligation to provide equality of opportunities among children is expressed in Article 2, the first paragraph of which reads: "States parties shall respect and ensure the rights set forth in the present convention to each child within their jurisdiction without discrimination of any kind, irrespective of the child's parents or legal guardian, race, color, sex, language, religion, political or other opinion, national, ethnic or social origin, poverty, disability, birth or other status." Best interest of the child (Article 3). Best interests of the Children, especially when they are very young, are vulnerable and need special support to be able to enjoy their rights fully. How could children be granted equal rights and at the same time the necessary protection? Part of the answer lies in the principle of the best interest of the child, formulated in Article 3:1. "In all actions concerning children whether undertaken by public or private social welfare institution, courts of law, administrative authorities or legislative bodies, the best interest of the child shall be a primary consideration."
  • 18. Right to life survival and development (Article 6). The principle most directly related to children's economic and social rights is formulated in the right to life article. The article goes further than just granting children the right not to be killed; it includes the right to survival and development which is formulated in Article 6:2 and states thus: "State parties shall ensure to the maximum extent possible the survival and development of the child." Right to be heard (Article 12). A crucial dimension of the convention is expressed through another principle, the one about respecting the views of the child. In order to know what is actually in the interest of the child it is logical to listen to him or her. The principle is formulated in Article 12:1 which states that "States parties shall assure to the child who is capable of forming his or her own views the rights to express those views freely in all matters affecting the child, the view of the child being given due weight in accordance with the age and maturity of the child.
  • 19. Four Themes of the UNCRC Articles There are 41 articles in the UNCRC which details different types of right, while the rest of the articles stipulate on how duty bearers must work together to ensure the fulfillment of these rights. The rights are not ranked in order of importance; instead they interact with one another to form one integrated set of rights. A common approach is to group these articles together under the following themes: Survival rights: include the child’s right to life and the needs that are most basic to existence, such as nutrition, shelter, an adequate living standard, and access to medical services. Development rights: include the right to education, play, leisure, cultural activities, access to information, and freedom of thought, conscience and religion.
  • 20. Protection rights: ensure children are safeguarded against all forms of abuse, neglect and exploitation, including special care for refugee children; safeguards for children in the criminal justice system; protection for children in employment; protection and rehabilitation for children who have suffered exploitation or abuse of any kind. Participation rights: encompass children's freedom to express opinions, to have a say in matters affecting their own lives, to join associations and to assemble peacefully. As their capacities develop, children should have increasing opportunity to participate in the activities of society, in preparation for adulthood.

The action can or is repeated over time: The action occurs more than once or the person or group of individuals target the victim repeatedly. An imbalance of power or strength exists: The victim feels powerless to do anything.

  • 31. Bullying and its Forms: The Anti-Bullying Act of 2013 The schools are often regarded as the learners’ second home and as such, are expected to promote child protection and safeguard the safety of its child-learners.

  • 48. The impact of discipline using punishment can be harmful because it inflicts physical and emotional pain. Here are the two ways of controlling behavior through punishment: A. Negative discipline – verbal disapproval like giving harsh words or shouting at the person and reprimands like suspensions, aggressive policing and reactive strategies. B. Corporal punishment – severe emotional or physical pain like slapping, exposing the student under the sun and kneeling in stones.

  • 53. Criteria for Effective Discipline According to Jane Nelsen (www.positivediscipline.com) , there are five criteria for effective discipline: 1. Helps children feel a sense of connection. • The learner feels that he/she is important. • There is the feeling of belongingness. 2. Is mutually respectful and encouraging. • Learners need kind words. • Teachers must be firm with their decisions.
  • 54. 3. Is effective long term. • The child learns from his/her mistakes as checked by the teachers. • The child values the disciplinary measures that are given. 4. Teaches important life and social skills. • The learner develops values like respect, concern for others, solving his/her own problems and helpfulness to family and community. 5. Invites children to discover how capable they are. • Encourages learners to develop their skills and use them well.
  • 55. Positive Discipline Techniques Teachers have their own way of handling untoward behavior in the classroom. Here are positive discipline techniques (www.positivediscipline.com): 1. Set the classroom rules at the start of the year. 2. Have consistent expectations. 3. Set goals at the beginning of class. 4. Appropriate behavior should be reinforced. 5. Remain neutral during conflicts. 6. Search for the root cause of the misbehavior.
  • 56. 7. Student dignity matters. 8. Create individual plans for students. 9. Use praise. 10. Model appropriate behaviors. 11. Provide students with different choices. 12. Remove objects in the environment that can cause distractions. 13. Listen to students.
  • 57. Benefits of Using Positive Discipline 1. Students show respect for the teachers. 2. Students are on task and engaged. 3. Less disciplinary measures are needed. 4. Fewer suspension and expulsions. 5. Students see rules as fair. 6. Attendance improves.
  • 58. Using Rewards and Privileges System Rewards and privileges can somehow control behavior because students tend to behave and actively participate in class to get the rewards and avail the privileges. But over using this technique for a long time can produce negative effects like dependency on the rewards in order for them to participate.
