All have as an essential component active student involvement in the learning process. All, to some extent, encourage students to try themselves out, to test themselves, in situations they may expect to come across in the future, often in an employment context. While it would be argued that experience alone is not enough, structured and supported experiences relevant to the student's discipline clearly have much to offer in the context of the broad conceptualisation of learning given above.
Learners actively construct their experience.
Learning is an holistic process. Learning is socially and culturally constructed. Learning is influenced by the socio-emotional context in which it occurs. The authors elaborate on each of the propositions as the underpinning of their book. Space prevents such elaboration here.
