Teaching and Learning: Using Experiential Learning and Reflection for Leadership Education
Guthrie, Kathy L.; Bertrand Jones, Tamara
New Directions for Student Services, n140 p53-63 Win 2012
Leadership experiences, arguably some of the most significant developmental opportunities in college, are ripe for helping students move from mere engagement to making meaning of and learning from their leadership experience. The International Learning Association's teaching and learning area asks: "what methods are most appropriate to ensure maximum student learning?" These authors believe that experiential learning and reflection are critical to maximize leadership learning. Providing intentional experiences to build leadership capacity in all students can be difficult. However, higher education professionals have opportunities to assist students make meaning of their experiences through deliberately reframing current leadership programming offered across institutional areas. In this chapter, experiential learning and reflective pedagogy are used as frameworks from which to offer a set of activities to help students learn about, reflect upon, and exercise leadership skills.
