Abstract

ABSTRACT

Long-term learning, especially learning that involves behavioral skill sets, requires both the acquisition and retention of whole person learning skill sets. The processing of whole person behavioral skill sets is most readily accomplished in experiential learning settings. For long-term learning to occur, an experientially inclined educator needs to have an educational agency model that inspires students to carry forward their learning program outcomes on multiple whole person learning fronts and over a period of time that is meaningful to the student
