For example, they are not learning math simply because the teacher says it’s important; they are working out how many building blocks they need to make a house, how many biscuits they need to share with the whole class etc. &nbsp;Many children don’t see the point of learning what is being taught hence lose the motivation to learn.&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>Experiential learning demonstrates the practical uses of knowledge and creates motivation to explore</strong>.</span></p><p style="margin-left: 9pt;"><span style="color: rgb(153, 0, 51);"><strong>- “There is nothing wrong to be wrong.”</strong></span></p><p style="margin-left: 9pt;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">Verbal and written instructions provide general explanation of a subject; learning by doing, on the other hand, can create a number of possibilities within the same context,<strong>allowing children to look at things from different angles and even experience the reality of ‘failure’</strong>, which also offer an opportunity for them to learn to face challenges.&nbsp; The sense of pride and confidence they get from overcoming challenges can only come from experiences.</span></p><p style="margin-left: 9pt;"><span style="color: rgb(153, 0, 51);"><strong>- “Is there a different way of doing it?”</strong></span></p><p style="margin-left: 9pt;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">This is the question we always look to hear from students, because it shows that they are not only knowledge learners but seekers.&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>Experiential learning enables children find their own way to arrive at an answer, resulting in the development of creative and critical thinking</strong></span></p></div></div></div>
