While e-learning has experienced rapid growth, it is hampered by being based on classroom models of learning. This article demonstrates how concepts of agency, belongingness, and competence that are central to experiential education can explain difficulties students encounter in e-learning courses.
-
By applying concepts from experiential education, adjustments were made in the course design to support learners developing a stronger sense of agency, belongingness and competence. Typical e-learning environments require students to abandon their familiar ways of achieving agency, belonging, and competence that had been comfortable and effective in traditional classrooms. When stripped of this in e-learning courses, students often flounder. The addition of concepts from experiential education can bolster e-learning environments because these concepts attend to some of those factors that cause students to struggle in e-learning courses.

Some educators view the Internet from a publishing perspective – as a way to distribute content to learners, often printed materials (Hannum, 2001; Bates, 2005). E-learning courses modeled in this way feature websites or course management systems that house and distribute content. As Malikowski, Thompson, and Theis (2007) noted, the main use of content management systems in e-learning has been to distribute printed course materials.

This view is consistent with a cognitive learning perspective that holds that individuals develop knowledge through discussion and collaboration with others (Kwok, Ma, and Vogel, 2002)

education that makes conscious application of … students’ experiences by integrating them into the curriculum. Experience …may include any combination of senses (i.e., touch, smell, hearing, sight, taste), emotions (e.g., pleasure, excitement, anxiety, fear, hurt, empathy, attachment, hope), physical condition (e.g., temperature, strength, energy level) and cognition (e.g., constructing knowledge, establishing beliefs, solving problems) (Carver,1996).

Experience is always a critical element in learning.

Taxonomy of Experiential E-Learning

Yet when e-learning is designed to incorporate maximum levels of experiential learning, by intentionally orienting it towards the higher end of the above taxonomy, it can become more effective.

Experiential learniovides an already-existing framework in which to develop a new model for e-learning, one that features the individual, alone or in creative interaction, as the mobile center-of-gravity of the learning environment. In an effective experiential education program, students and teachers become more effective change agents, develop a sense of belonging to a community, and master both skills and knowledge. In an experientially-infused e-learning course, students and teachers do much the same.
-
Experiential educators usually exhibit the following characteristics: they are creative in their use of resources (including time, space and authority), conscious of how behavioral norms are established (by modeling and labeling), and consistent in making decisions that reflect a set of values including compassion, communication, critical thinking, creativity, community, and respect for individuals and the environment
