knowledge “through the transformation of experience” 1. To understand the cycle, anunderstanding of the four basic kinds of experience modes is needed: concrete experience (CE),reflective observation (RO), abstract conceptualization (AC), and active experimentation (AE).A different learning process is conducted depending on which aspect of experiences affectindividuals 12. The ideal experiential learning cycle will have a learner "touch all the bases" 12 ofthe cycle seen in Figure 1. In diverse fields, several positive effects Concreteof experiential learning have been proven. ExperienceExperiential learning benefits learners withproper exercises.
