"Everything that can possibly provide, or affect, a learning experience, is discussed: most theories of learning, and every conceivable way to interest learners in an activity...Even very accomplished developers who prepare learning experiences for all types of learners, from grade level classes through executive seminars can undoubtedly find many ideas to expand the design options upon which they can draw."

Those seeking to learn more about -- and develop for themselves -- a more student-centered training approach will find much food for thought here."" -- Jane Bozarth ""Experiential Learning""
