The Power of Experiential Learning for Effective Education
This chapter highlights the advantages of experiential learning compared to traditional methods, showcasing how active engagement fosters deeper understanding in children. Personal anecdotes from cooking classes illustrate the power of hands-on experiences, complemented by recommended readings on educational methodologies.
In this podcast, recorded during the Swiss Clinic retreat that I led in the Swiss Alps two weeks ago, we cover a host of questions from attendees.
Strap yourself in and prepare for this massive Q&A that includes the following: -Are you increasing mTOR by taking Kion Aminos throughout the day vs. around a workout? [6:25]- 1 gram of amino acids = 1 gram of protein
