# Experiential Learning Cycle Designer

## What This Skill Does

Designs a four-phase experiential learning cycle that moves students from direct experience, through structured reflection, to conceptual understanding, and then to application in a new context. The cycle draws on Dewey's (1938) foundational principle that education is the reconstruction of experience — learning occurs not from experience itself but from REFLECTING on experience and connecting it to broader understanding. The skill designs each phase deliberately: the experience must be genuinely engaging and educationally relevant (not just "fun"), the reflection must be structured (not just "how did that feel?"), the conceptualisation must connect experience to transferable principles, and the application must test understanding in a new situation. The
