cone's dale experience


When Dale researched learning and teaching methods he found that much direct and indirect (and of concrete and abstract) experience could be summarized in a pyramid or ‘pictorial device’ Dales called ‘the Cone of Experience’. In his book ‘Audio visual methods in teaching’ – 1957, he stated that the cone was not offered as a perfect or mechanically flawless picture to be taken absolutely literally. It was merely designed as a visual aid to help explain the interrelationships of the various types of audio-visual materials, as well as their individual ‘positions’ in the learning process.
from the clear explanation above, we can conclude that cone's dale experience is about the division of dale's believe about learning process. student will get success in learning if they do the experience by themselves. they learn by doing what they have done.
