Towards the Process of Adapting the Concrete and the Abstract Through Learning Activities According to Kolb's Styles in Online Teaching

Abstract

In the context of experiential learning, which developed around the concepts of experiential learning according to Kolb's theory, which posits that learning can only take place when a learner experiences the information which has been given to him or which he discovers through experience, the aim of this chapter is to contribute to the development of an architecture of learning activities. The study explores how Kolb's four learning styles can be integrated into online learning activities, the aim of which is to improve learner engagement and success. The authors emphasize the importance of considering learners' learning styles in the design and presentation of online learning activities. First of all, they address the perception dimension (concrete and abstract and vice versa) using two inductive and deductive approaches and in a practical manner within the framework of modular teaching.
