On the one hand the term is used to describe the sort of learning undertaken by students who are given a chance to acquire and apply knowledge, skills and feelings in an immediate and relevant setting. The second type of experiential learning is ‘education that occurs as a direct participation in the events of life’ (Houle 1980: 221). Much of the literature on experiential learning, as Peter Jarvis comments (1995: 75), ‘is actually about learning from primary experience, that is learning through sense experiences’. Village One is concerned particularly with assessing and accrediting learning from life and work experience…. Issues
Challenging the Presentation Paradigm with the 1/1/5 Rule
A measure of how bad presentations in academia can be is the sheer number of tips and strategies we’ve suggested on ProfHacker, in a recurring series called Challenging the Presentation Paradigm. One of these techniques I’ve used in my classes for several years is the Pecha Kucha format. With 20 slides at 20 seconds per slide, a Pecha Kucha is, as Jason writes, necessarily “SHORT, INFORMAL, and CREATIVE.” However, as I’ve found out the hard way, a Pecha Kucha format does not necessarily mean students will avoid text-heavy slides, one of the major causes of DBP (Death By PowerPoint). That’s why I’ve begun implementing what I call the 1/1/5 rule for all student presentations. Here’s how I describe the 1/1/5 rule to my students: In addition to the time constraint of the Pecha Kucha, your presentation must also follow the 1/1/5 rule. The 1/1/5 rule is just a small tweak, but it has made all the difference. Have you tried similar techniques in your classrooms? Return to Top

Le crowdfunding de La Colère des Justes a passé la barre des 60% !!!Il reste encore une bonne marche à enjamber pour atteindre l'objectif, mais ce départ est plus qu'en courageant. D'ailleurs, pour remercier les premiers à avoir soutenu ce financement, nous avons décidé d'offrir aux 100 premiers participants (offre valable pour tous les participants ayant pris la contrepartie Sergent de la croisade ou supérieure) 6 lithographies reprenant les couvertures des 6 tomes compilés de la campagne. Le Recueil de scénarios est le second des 6 suppléments financés grâce au crowdfunding Polaris et c'est donc tout naturellement son PDF finalisé et illustré que les participants vont pouvoir télécharger dès aujourd'hui en allant sur leur compte boutique. MESSAGE IMPORTANTS : à propos des ouvrages financés par le crowdfunding Polaris, sachez que le Guide technique part à l'impression lundi, et que Le Recueil de scénarios partira lui le lendemain, mardi 15 avril. Bon week-end à tous !

Organize and Decorate Everything — Organize Your Life and Decorate Your World
Here is another garland I made for Emilee’s birthday and to decorate her bedroom door. This is another great way to give money as a gift. To make the Dollar Bow Garland you can make as many bows as you like and in any denomination. My folding skills aren’t amazing so I decided on making a simple bow. Fold one end of the bill toward the center, then the other end. Accordion fold the center of the bill a bit then smush it together. Cut a length of bakers twine and wrap it around the center of the bill a few times to secure it. Cut bakers twine for the length of the banner. Emilee loved it! I have one more garland I made for her birthday. Check out these posts if you missed fun ways to give money to teens:Straw GarlandBirthday Money Balloons Do you know the perfect birthday gift for your teen? I started with 50 $1 bills and 18 straws. I measured and cut the straws in half. Then I used a needle to pull the bakers twine through each straw. This is so exciting! Happy Sweet 16 Emilee!!!
Simplicité volontaire
Un article de Ékopédia, l'encyclopédie pratique. La simplicité volontaire (ou sobriété heureuse) est un mode de vie consistant à réduire volontairement sa consommation par la maîtrise des besoins. On parle aussi parfois de frugalité. L'objectif est de mener une vie davantage centrée sur des valeurs "essentielles". Origine La simplicité volontaire est une attitude qui existe depuis des millénaires, même si le terme est très récent. Aujourd'hui, ce qui est devenu petit à petit un mouvement est représenté, entre autres, par les Compagnons de Saint François ou encore les Communautés de l’Arche de Lanza del Vasto, inspiré par Gandhi, lui-même inspiré par Thoreau et Ruskin. Premiers emplois de l'expression En 1936, l'on trouve pour la première fois l'expression "simplicité volontaire" (simple living) dans un article de Richard Gregg, un disciple de Gandhi, qui reprend les idées principales de celui-ci. Principes L'idée est de chercher la simplification pour améliorer sa qualité de vie. Voir aussi
