Mathematics and Life 45 Experiential Learning

The role of experience

In the behaviour school of psychology, who treat, observe, measure only the behavioural aspects, modification in behaviour is considered learning. For example, if you are training your dog to get the ball back, it does it, it has learnt what it means to get the ball back. Closer to us, if the teacher has just taught the concept of odd and even and now asks her 10 students to arrange themselves in odd number of rows and they make five rows with two students in each,they can be seen to have learnt the concept of odd and even. With more practice, it can be further consolidated.

The mega companies like Jio, Amazon, Google, Facebook and others too have what is called experiential marketing as their backbone. Using, AI and applying big data, machine learning, techniques they study you and provide experiences you have been preferring to choose. 

In this video, the high energy, very motivated friend of mine Dr. Sapna Agrawal takes us to the journey of providing experiential learning

Learning by doing is surely be the right thing to get experiential learning

So, the bottom line for the teachers to be successful is to provide result oriented experiences.

We all write lesson objectives in our lesson plan. The point is how sustainable is the experience you are providing to the child ? In how many situations will the child be able to apply knowledge?

In technical terms, how much is the transformation of learning taking place ? Just to connect to a very high end application of the construct of transformation of learning, after extensive, exhaustive and exhausting simulation training, the fighter pilot is given the fighter jet to fly. Now, he is supposed to be transferring the simulation learnings to the actual situation, sudden emergencies on the real flight. 


The Apollo 11 astronaut team, which landed on the Moon, were given extensive training for years for feeling being weightless, no oxygen, no contact with the Mission Team as well.


So, provide such an experience to your students, customers, family members, friends that they like to deal with you, learn from you, read you and demand more of it in the form of waiting for the next episode, ask for the same product, tell others about you.

My Journey as a Maths Teacher – Part 2

  🧒 From Grade 3 to Guiding Future Teachers It gives me immense pleasure to be of some help to my younger mathematics teaching colleagues like Shruti Goel, Laly, Preeti Garg, Misha Nambiar, Rajendra Paliwal , and many others—across subjects and across schools. But things weren’t always this way. 📘 The Indore Phase – Simplicity, Struggle, and Silent Growth After leaving Mumbai in 1988, I served as a school teacher at Choithram School, Indore , till 1992. I even taught Grades 3 to 5 in a single session . Yet, the spirit was always high. I loved taking classes, creating activity sheets, and even wrote articles I mailed to U.S. education journals —long before emails were common. If there was one shortcoming I admit, it was in checking large stacks of answer books. I often rationalised, “I’m a creative person, so it’s okay.” In hindsight, it wasn’t—but the honesty helped me grow. 🔄 The Decade of Churn (1988–1997) It was a whirlwind decade. Imagine this combination: Ph.D. ...
