Held on October 21 – 22, 2017
The 21st century is making many of the conventional classroom-based educational methodologies ineffective at all levels. There is a widespread interest in the adoption of experiential learning in professional disciplines such as education, engineering, business and media in universities as well as in schools. Experiential learning is learning by doing and includes Project-based learning, Problem-based learning (PBL) and activity-based learning. It is often referred to learning through action, experience, discovery and exploration.
