    Study Notes

    Experiential Learning Models and Theory (QHPE 601)

    • Course name: Experiential Learning Models and Theory
    • Course code: QHPE 601
    • Course description: Evidence-based Teaching and Learning
    • Faculty credits: Dr Ahsan Sethi, Dr Daniel Rainkie

    Learning Objectives

    • Students will be able to compare and contrast experiential and simulation-based learning.
    • Students will be able to describe models of workplace-based learning.
    • Students will be able to identify compatible learning outcomes for experiential and simulation environments (e.g., simple/complex skills).
    • Students will be able to identify weak, strong, and knowledge-based problem-solving methods.

    Experiential Education

    • Experiential learning involves constructing knowledge and meaning from real-life experiences.
    • In healthcare, experiential learning places learners in roles and contexts relevant to their future careers.
    • Theoretical underpinnings include constructivism and social learning theories.

    Theories and Models of Workplace-Based Learning (Billett)

    • Learning and participation are inseparable.
    • Learners actively participate in the learning process.
    • Learning at work involves co-construction between workplace opportunities and learner engagement.
    • Workplace offers human and system partners to support individual knowledge gain.

    Theories and Models of Workplace-Based Learning (Eraut)

    • Eraut's model includes social and individual aspects of learning at work.
    • Learning occurs through interaction and experience with colleagues.
    • Implicit (tacit) learning happens without awareness.
    • Tacit knowledge comes from contexts, organizations, and participation.
    • Knowledge is situated within activities and social relations.

    Model Conclusions

    • Maximize participation through meaningful tasks and effective support.
    • Minimize barriers to participation, and maximize learning from others.
    • Encourage reflection and build on natural community processes within interdisciplinary and interprofessional teams.

    Path to Expertise

    • Experiential training is crucial for developing expertise and psychomotor/cognitive skills.

    Providing Care is Problem Solving

    • Cases/problems can be structured (well-defined) or unstructured (ill-defined).
    • Structure experiences to move from well-structured to ill-structured problems.
    • Experiential learning involves scenarios without control of who presents for care. Simulation provides defined and controlled situations.

    Problem Solving Methods

    • Weak methods use transferable skills in any domain (e.g., map reading).
    • Strong methods use specific skills in a particular domain (e.g., taking a medical history, using "if-then" rules).

    Problem Solving as a Goal

    • Knowledge-based methods combine weak and strong methods to solve ill-structured problems (unclear diagnoses, multiple solutions).
    • Interpretation of domain knowledge is critical for problem solving.
    • Knowledge-based problem solving requires conceptual, causal, and structural models.

    Learners as Problem Solvers

    • Learners use relevant knowledge and experiences to find solutions through systematic approaches.
    • Real-life problem solving involves both ill-structured and well-structured elements.
    • Ill-structured problems are best solved using knowledge-based methods. Well-structured problems are best solved using strong methods.

    Problem Solving as a Skill (Dreyfus and Dreyfus)

    • The Dreyfus model provides a five-phase model for problem-solving skill development.
    • Experts have largely automated tasks and can interpret problems in general terms.
    • They can monitor and self-correct their performance. Non-routine problems require knowledge-based methods.

    System Models and Automation

    • System 1 (automatic): Fast, unconscious, inflexible, using mental shortcuts.
    • System 2 (monitor): Monitors system 1; more conscious and capable of correcting errors or overriding automatic judgments.

    Summary

    • Learner-centered experiential education in communities of practice facilitates optimal learning.
    • Learners benefit from opportunities aligned with their training stage..
    • Script formation is critical for expertise.
    • Both routine and non-routine tasks requiring knowledge-based problem-solving methods are crucial for learning.
