4. When Does Experiential Learning Take Place? “Experiential learning takes place
When a person involved in an activity
Looks back and evaluates it,
Determines what was useful or important to remember,
And uses this information to perform another activity.”
John Dewey
Adapted from Kathleen Jamison, Virginia 4-H specialist, curriculum & learning

46. Why Experience-based Learning?
Consider that we remember:
20% of what we read.
20 % of what we hear.
30% of what we see.
50% of what we see and hear.
70% of what we see, hear, and discuss; and
90% of what we see, hear, discuss, and practice.
