VILLARROEL HENRIQUEZ, Verónica Alejandra; GUTIERREZ SUAREZ, María Pía; BRUNA JOFRE, Daniela Valentina y CASTILLO RABANAL, Isidora Francisca. Application of the experiential learning methodology in Higher Education. Podium [online]. 2021, n.40, pp.41-58. Epub 19-Dic-2021. ISSN 2588-0969. https://doi.org/10.31095/podium.2021.40.3.
An experiential learning methodology was used in the Psychology of Adulthood course, in the Psychology major of a Chilean university. The aim of this case study was for students to apply and put their knowledge into practice in a real, contextualized situation, and for this to impact on their in-depth learning. The implementation of this methodology was carried out by teachers and assistants during classes, tutoring and field trips, in which students had to execute a variety of activities and deliver a series of products. In general, positive results were observed regarding the students’ performance and the way in which they engaged with the context and their future role as psychologists. In conclusion, experiential learning is a valuable tool, which offers guidelines for its implementation in Higher Education and introduce students to their future professional roles.
