Problem Solving Using Virtual Tools
Experiential Learning is an approach to teaching that provides opportunities for students to co-construct their learning by:
-
participating in rich experiences connected to a community outside of the classroom;
-
reflecting on those experiences to create meaning and identify learning; and
-
applying their learning to influence their decisions and actions in various aspects of their lives.

The experience can involve local, national, or global communities where teachers and students are:
-
physically present (an on-site experience); or
-
present through the use of digital tools and technologies (a virtual experience); or,
-
a combination of the these two (a blended experience).
