This YouTube video introduces the theory and practice of Kolb’s four-step learning cycle :
How do we best learn? That may be a question you have not considered before, but it is certainly important. If we want to have a growth mindset, we need to ensure we are developing effectively. It turns out that effective learning happens cyclically, in a continual loop, and that is what the Kolb learning cycle helps us to embrace.
Following extensive research, David A. Kolb published his learning cycle in 1984. Since then, Kolb’s learning cycle has become probably the best-known and most respected learning model there is. The four stages of Kolb’s learning cycle are:
1. Concrete Experience (CE)
2. Reflective Observation (RO)
3. Abstract Conceptualisation (AC)
4. Active Experimentation (AE)
Effective learning is only achieved when the loop is completed. But, the loop can be entered at any point, as long as the full cycle is accomplished.
