LESSON 8: TEACHING WITH CONTRIVED EXPERIENCES

           LESSON 8:

TEACHING WITH CONTRIVED EXPERIENCES

What are contrived experiences? These are edited copies of reality and
are used as substitutes for real things when it is not practical or not 
possible to bring the real thing in the classroom.

These were designed to stimulate the real situations.

The planetarium is an example of a mock-up which is one of the contrived experience.

Mock-up sample of a planned subdivision and a specimen are also examples.

We make use of these contrived experiences to overcome limitations of space and time,

to overcome difficulties of size and help learners understand abstraction.
