Dale's Cone Reading
It's a pyramid shaped cone that has level of how one learns and the further you go down the cone the more senses are used to retain that information.
Is Dale's Cone of Experience logical? Factual?
I believe it is logical. His original cone did not have any percentages or order.
How does Dales' Cone of Experience comport with current research on teaching and learning in the assigned reading. After the reading, comment on your opinion of the validity of Dale's Cone of Experience.
The newer cones are very similiar to the original but updated for todays learning.
I agree with the original cone not having percentages and order to it. There are many types of different learners. Who's to say which way is best and which one absorbs the most the fastest.
But it gives a wide range of the kind of learners we can have.
