Experiential Learning

ETHZ D-MATL, Department of Materials

  • Experiential learning immerses learners in practical experiences to master core competencies such as teamwork, feedback, critical thinking, communication and self-reflection. For a D-MAVT experiential learning course on the topic of scientific writing, we have produced an animated, explanatory video, ten gifs for the Moodle course and an illustration in the style of a “choose your own adventure map” to provide an overview of the course structure.
