In Vietnam, experiential activities and experience-based learning models were first introduced in 2018 into the general education curriculum and they will be applied when implementing this program. Therefore, the teacher training program at university of education should meet the requirements of general education reform. In particular, it is essential to guide pedagogical students to design and organise experiential learning activities in the school. This study describes the design, implementation, and evaluation of a course of guiding to design and organise experience-based learning in schools for Vietnamese pedagogical students who will plan to implement experience-based learning activities into their teaching. A course in a 60-hour instructional process (including 30 hours of self-studying) with 5 activities designed to be experiential, enables our students to simultaneously explore and practice experience-based learning activities. The results of designing and organising 55 experience-based learning activity plans were obtained from one hundred and nine participants of the Faculty of Biology, Thai Nguyen University of Education, Vietnam who assessed the instructional process beneficially. The research group also proposed five effective measures to organise experiential learning in high school. This tutorial process will continue to be improved and implemented in subsequent courses to contribute to the renovation of higher education and meet the general educational improvement in Vietnam.

The aim of the present study is to investigate the effect of experiential learning activity in deep conceptual understanding of science in comparison with conventional teaching model. In the present experiment quasi experimental and post-test research design is implemented. Totally 80 students participate in the study: 40 girls and 40 boys. The sample is categorized into two: study and the control group. Each group consists of 40 students: 20 boys and 20 girls. The study group is taught “Gases Law” by using experiential learning activities and the control is taught by using the conventional method. Data is collected by using a questionnaire and it consists of 20 multiple choice questions. The collected data is analyzed by using descriptive statistics. The examination of the data illustrates that there is no noteworthy difference in the mean score between the study group and the control group. Independent ‘t-test’ is applied to compare the student’s achievement in post-test. The mean score of the study group, who are exposed to the experiential learning activities, in Science Achievement post-test is 17.35. It is higher than that of (t=6.65; p>0.01) the learners in the control group. The mean of the control group is 14.45. Therefore, it is concluded that the experiential learning activities as a teaching model enhances the deep conceptual understanding of science.

PAUD institutions are often interpreted as a place of learning for children who are only oriented to the skills and knowledge of reading, writing, counting, and drawing. PAUD institutions should focus on children's development related to religious and moral, physical, cognitive, language, social, emotional and artistic aspects. Thus the educational services provided by PAUD institutions must be able to facilitate all aspects of child development through enjoyable learning activities and help increase understanding of parents or the surrounding community about playing as a fun learning activity. Fun learning activities for early childhood need to be designed to help children get real life simulations in their daily activities. PAUD institution learning activities need to be adjusted to the stages of child development based on experiential learning model learning principles. On that basis, an activity is needed that facilitates the creation of learning experiences for managers and parents or community members in PAUD institutions about experiential learning.Keywords: Childhood Education (PAUD), Experiential Learning

Event management education continues to increase in popularity and importance. However, in many event management courses, learning outcomes are often expressed in learning process-oriented skills. Beyond event management skills, this research proposes that leadership skills should also be included in event management courses. Experiential learning activities are an ideal opportunity to develop, practice, and enhance leadership skills and the optimal situation is experiential learning activities. Students were surveyed after completing an event management course, which included an experiential learning activity where they developed and produced instructor-led events. Students indicated that they learned many leadership skills, including communication, commitment, strategic planning, and accountability. Communication was the most cited skill that students both learned and demonstrated, and this correlated to the students' perception that communication is also the most important leadership skill required for a career in event management. It is proposed that event management courses utilize leadership skills in the course objectives and that, by doing so, it may provide additional student benefits and academic legitimacy to these courses.

The paper presents how to apply David Kolb's experiential learning cycle into the designing experiential learning activities for students in teaching Biology. Based on the objective, content, and learning style of the student, the teacher designs learning tasks at four stages of the experiential cycle: concrete experience, reflective observation, abstract conceptualisation and active experimentation. Each stage of the experiential learning cycle can be taken many forms of learning activity, so the teacher needs to select the appropriate types of activity for each stage and put the stages into a closed cycle to organize the learning. The article also provides an illustrative example of applying  experiential cycle in designing learning activities in teaching Biology in general school.
