  • Description of Presentation:

    This experimental study aims to determine if teaching mathematics while respecting the four stages of the experiential learning cycle of Kolb (1984) has an effect on grade 7 students’ learning of probabilities. During the session, the study will be presented and participants will be invited to discuss how experiential learning can be integrated into the classroom. A discussion will also aim to develop a better understanding of the results.
