This Session is intended to further an educator’s understanding about experiential teaching and learning by providing educators with a better understanding of their preferred approach to educating others. This session sets into practice the Kolb experiential learning model. Participants will learn about the four dynamic experiential educator roles in lifelong learning - the framework and the rationale. Research results of the Educator Role Profile (ERP), used to assess varying educator characteristics will be discussed. Participants will be given access to take the ERP to identify their instructional characteristics.
