Kolb’s Experiential Learning Model Explained Simply Learning isn’t just about memorizing facts – it’s about experiencing, reflecting, thinking, and doing. David Kolb’s model shows us that learning is a cycle with four stages: 1️⃣ Concrete Experience – Learning by doing. 2️⃣ Reflective Observation – Thinking back on what happened. 3️⃣ Abstract Conceptualization – Making sense of it, forming ideas or theories. 4️⃣ Active Experimentation – Trying again with new strategies.
