Dear Colleagues,
If you're interested in developing, facilitating, and/or publishing experiential exercises then please join us for two PDWs we have put together for this year's Eastern Academy of Management Meeting in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (May 6th - 9th).
How to Create an Experiential Exercise from Scratch
Experiential Learning Association (ELA) Design Studio
Scheduled: Thursday, May 7, 2015, 10:15- 11:45 AM
at Doubletree by Hilton Philadelphia Center City
Join us in the ELA Design Studio where we will focus our attention on creating participative, interactive, and applied management exercises. Experienced designers will take you through the process of identifying learning objectives, crafting activities for participants, identifying the factors affecting student learning, and creating a scheme for implementation. Join us who love the art of designing experiential exercises and are eager to facilitate its use.
Come to our ELA Design Studio with a management topic and leave with a promising rough sketch of your first or next experiential learning exercise!

How to Develop Teaching Notes to Accompany an Experiential Exercise
Experiential Learning Association (ELA) Design Studio
Scheduled: Thursday, May 7, 2015, 12:00- 1:30 PM
at Doubletree by Hilton Philadelphia Center City
Experiential learning occurs when carefully chosen experiences are supported by reflection, critical analysis and synthesis of knowledge. Teaching notes guide management educators through the process of facilitating and reflecting upon the experiential exercise to ensure students engage with the learning cycle and emerge with a deeper understanding of the concept, idea, or process being studied. In this workshop, participants will work together to create teaching notes to accompany an experiential exercise and reflect upon the experience.
