This document discusses different theories and models of experiential learning. It defines experiential learning as planned, structured activities designed to achieve learning outcomes, as opposed to accidental learning from unplanned experiences. Two definitions of experiential learning are provided: 1) involvement in concrete activities that enable experiencing what is being learned, and reflecting on those experiences; and 2) creating knowledge through transforming experiences. Kolb's model views grasping experience through concrete experience and abstract conceptualization, and processing through reflective observation and active experimentation in a four-stage learning cycle.
