6. Kolb's Learning Cycle

David Kolb's Experimental Learning Cycle was created in 1984. Kolb’s Experiential Learning Cycle is combined in four-stage learning cycles. It provides a foundation for learning and development by describing the ideal processes where knowledge is created through experience.

1. Concrete experience: Your experience 

2. Reflective observation: Your reflection 

3. Abstract conceptualisation: Learning from the experience 

4. Active experimentation: Using what you have learned
