Dale's Cone of Experience

1. Dale's Cone of Experience is a model that utilizes several theories of the learning process. It shows that learners can retain more information by what they actually do, not hear or see. It shows that all-reading, hearing, seeing, and writing need to be incorportated into how one learns.
2. I do believe it to be logical. Individuals that are kinetic learners will learn more while actually doing the activity instead of reading it. However, it does not hold true for auditory learners.
3. According to the reading, there is really no proof how valid this model actually is. I do feel that there is some truth in the model. At least for some types of learners.
