LESSON 5- The Cone of Experience

The cone of experience is a visual analogy, a pictorial device that presents band of experience arranged according to the degree of abstraction. The base part is the concrete and the pinnacle part is the abstract. each kind of sensory experience is not necessarily more educational and useful than the other. Sensory experiences are mixed and interrelated, But there should be a balance between concrete and abstract and an adequate foundation of concrete is needed in teaching directly the symbolic level.

Experiences, resources, good judgement, commitment and dedication to teaching is needed so that learning will continue throughout life.
