Reasserting the Philosophy of Experiential Education as a Vehicle for Change in the 21st Century.

Itin, Christian M.

Journal of Experiential Education, v22 n2 p91-98 Fall 1999

Experiential education is not just experiential learning, but also a philosophy of education that involves the interaction between learner and teacher and recognizes the larger system-level issues within education. Viewing experiential education as a philosophy allows for its various expressions to argue collectively for educational reform that would support experiential education in all settings. Contains 32 references. (TD)
