stages in learning and development.
His work of experimental learning was developed and connected to the previous work of Dewey, Lewin, and Piaget. (Evans et al., 2010) It was created “to underscore the role of experience in the learning process” (Evans et al., 2010, p. 138). The learning style factor of Kolb’s theory is highlighted often; however, “it is conceptually more broadly based as a developmental theory” (Evans et al., 2010, p. 137), and can be applied to adult development.
2010 , p. 143). This concept is what I have been consciously focused on during my first semester teaching GEP101. With every assignment and lesson I plan, I attempt to include varied learning styles so that each student is able to relate to and participate in the topic. An example of my effort includes my students’ final personal and professional development mini portfolio. This portfolio includes six parts, impromptu thirty second introduction of themselves, personality and skill assessment, cover letter and resume, four-year academic plan, his or her class schedule for next semester, and a career research paper. When preparing for this project and now after understanding Kolb’s theory, it is my hope that each student will learn and develop and understanding about their individual strengths, interests, skills and abilities. In addition, they are able to able to illustrate the knowledge that he or she gained in the final project.
