Students' learning experiencesas drivers of innovation?

Experiential learning cycle
Kolb, D.A., 1984. Experiential learning: experience as the source of learning and development,Englewood Cliffs, NJ: Prentice Hall.
Experiential knowledge

Teachers & students
Focus
➢ Students' experiential knowledge
produced when students reflect on experiences
associated with executing learning tasks
Inspiration:The Organizational Knowledge Creation Theory

Proposal of2 theoretical models
➢ Teacher-centered production
of students' experiential knowledge

Augmented teacher-centered production model
Conclusions
➢ 2 theoretical models proposed for students' experiential knowledge production
➢ The knowledge processes are
➢ all found in practice in UCLV undergraduate programs➢ partially supported by nation-wide policy documents
➢ In UCLV it's mostly teacher-centered and top-down
