Today's world is dynamic and ever-changing. It's become widely accepted that children born at the late end of the 20th century and subsequent generations can expect to have around five careers throughout a lifetime. Online classes and specialized skill workshops are helping everyone to remain up-to-date with the newest trends and skills necessary to thrive in today's modern workplace. Because of this, employers are valuing soft skills in potential employees. For most industries, soft skills like adaptability and empathy are considered even as valuable in a new employee.

It is therefore crucial that schools integrate new learning techniques to prepare children for the longer term and future job requirement. Rote and didactic learning styles have dominated the education system since the economic revolution, making a kid play comparatively passive role within the learning process. In more recent times, it's become common practice for teachers to integrate more active learning techniques within the classroom, like experiential learning. Experiential learning is the process of learning through experience.

Over the years, along with skills, experiential learning has also proven to have a wide range of benefits that contribute to a child's development.

Students can better grasp concepts

Students may struggle to grasp concepts that don't pertain to the real world. With experiential learning, students are allowed to apply data and ideas in a real-world situation where they too play an active role. As the students interact with the knowledge, it becomes real to them.

Students have the opportunity to be more creative

Experiential learning is one among the simplest ways to show creative problem-solving. With real-world content, children learn that there are multiple solutions to challenges, and that they are encouraged to hunt their unique solutions to hands-on tasks.

Students have the opportunity to reflect

By incorporating concrete experiences with abstract concepts and reflecting on the result, students engage more regions of their brain and beef up connections with the concepts. They are encouraged to analyze how their actions affect an issue, and how their outcome may have varied from that of the other students. This analysis helps them better understand how the same concepts can be applied to other circumstances.

Students’ mistakes become valuable experiences

As students engage in hands-on tasks, they're going to find some approaches that actually work better. They discard the methods that don’t work, but the act of trying something then abandoning it – ordinarily considered a “mistake” – becomes a valuable a part of the training process. Students learn not to fear mistakes, but to value them.

One of the easiest ways to ensure students are exposed to experiential learning is by incorporating project-based learning.
