CHAPTER 5: CONE OF EXPERIENCE

ORGANIZER:

REFLECTION:

      Dale's cone of experience as what we see in the diagram above is a visual model that is composed of 11 stages starting from concrete experiences at the bottom of the cone then it becomes more abstract as it reach the peak of the cone.

      The cone of experience show us the different level or stages of experiences in learning. As the level becomes more higher and higher, it does not mean that the level also becomes more difficult. As what Edgar Dale said, the arrangement of experiences is not based on the level of difficulty but rather based on abstraction and the number of sense that are involved.

       As a conclusion, the cone of experience is essential in achieving a better outcome of learning. As a future educator, the cone of experience will serve as my guiding principle in facilitating learning wherein I can use a variety of instructional materials and strategies in teaching in order to maximize the learning experience of the students.
