Digital Printing Technology in University Experiential Learning Classes

Journal Title: Journal of Textile Science & Fashion Technology (JTSFT) - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 3

Abstract

Experiential learning-that is, hands-on learning or learning by doing-has long been known as one of the best ways for students to learn [1]. By applying their theoretical knowledge in real-life situations, students can gain a concrete understanding of complex ideas. When students study abstract topics such as visual design, it’s even more important for instructors to find ways to teach experientially. Measuring and describing the impacts of experiential learning activities helps university professors understand which of their practical activities such as laboratory assignments and practicums are most effective, but, more importantly, evaluating teaching methods helps explain why some methods are more effective and how learning takes place in various practical experiences [2]. Since well before the American education philosopher John Dewey wrote about the value of educational pragmatism in the early 1900s, college faculty have been successfully employing experiential learning techniques in their classrooms [3].
