In this video series, the
concepts of the learning cycle, learning moments, and learning scripts are
described in the context of student learning on pharmacy practicums.
Acknowledgements, Licensing, References, and
Project Team
The team
behind these videos would like to acknowledge the (rather loose) use of Kolb’s
(1984) concept of the experiential learning cycle and its more recent
renditions in theories of adult learning (see Taylor & Hamdy, 2013).
Similarly, the
notion of learning script as used throughout these videos, is based on Schank
& Abelson’s (1977) concept of “script” and its application in health
sciences education as “teaching script” (Irby, 1992; Marcdante & Simpson,
1999) and “illness script” (e.g. Schmidt & Rikers, 2007).
