- 6. What are referred to as direct, purposeful experiences? There are concrete and firsthand experiences that make up the foundation of learning. These are the rich experiences that our senses bring from which we construct the ideas, concepts, the generalizations that give meaning and order to our lives. (Dale, 1969). They are sensory experiences.
- 7. In contrast, indirect experiences of other people that we observe, read or hear about. They are not our own self- experiences but still experiences in the sense that we see, read and hear about them. They are not firsthand but vicarious experiences. Examples of firsthand experiences: Preparing meals; Making piece of furniture; Doing power point presentation; Performing a laboratory experiences; Delivering a speech; and Taking a trip.

- 8. Why are there direct experiences described to be purposeful? Purposeful because the experiences are not purely mechanical; They are not a mere sensory excitation; and They are experiences that are internalized in the sense that these experiences involve the asking of questions that have significance in the life of the person undergoing the direct experiences.

- 10. John Dewey (1916) AN OUNCE OF EXPERIENCE IS BETTER THAN A TON OF THEORY BECAUSE IT IS ONLY IN EXPERIENCE THAT ANY THEORY HAS VITAL AND VERIFIABLE SIGNIFICANCE. AN EXPERIENCE, A VERY HUMBLE EXPERIENCE, IS CAPABLE OF GENERATING AND CARRYING ANY AMOUNT OF THEORY (OR INTELLECTUAL CONTENT), BUT A THEORY APART FROM AN EXPERIENCE CANNOT BE DEFINITELY GRASPED AS A THEORY. IT TENDS TO BECOME A MERE VERBAL FORMULA, A SET OF CATCHWORDS USED TO RENDER THINKING, OR GENUINE THEORIZING UNNECESSARY AND IMPOSSIBLE.
- 11. If direct, purposeful experiences or firsthand sensory experiences make us learn concepts and skills effectively, what does this imply to the teaching- learning-process?
- 12. First, let us give our students opportunities to learn by doing. Let us immerse our students in the world of experience. Second, let us make use of real things instructional material for as long as we can. Third, let us help the students develop the five senses to the full to heightens their sensitivity to the world. Fourth, let us guide our students so that they can drew meaning from their firsthand experiences and elevate their level of thinking.
- 13. Conclusion Experiences that are internalized in the sense that these experiences involve the asking questions that have significance in the life of that person. Direct purposeful experiences represents reality or the closet things to real, everyday life.
