Learning By Doing is a book written by Edgar James Swift and published in 1914. The book is a detailed exploration of the concept of experiential learning, which involves learning through direct experience and practical application of knowledge. Swift argues that this approach to education is more effective than traditional classroom instruction, as it allows students to develop a deeper understanding of concepts and skills by actively engaging with them.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which explores a different aspect of experiential learning. Swift begins by discussing the importance of hands-on experience in developing practical skills, and goes on to describe various methods of experiential learning, such as apprenticeships, internships, and service learning. He also discusses the role of reflection in the learning process, and provides practical advice for educators looking to incorporate experiential learning into their teaching.Throughout the book, Swift draws on examples from his own experience as an educator and administrator, as well as from other fields such as business and industry. He argues that experiential learning is not only more effective than traditional classroom instruction, but also more relevant to the needs of modern society, which values practical skills and real-world experience.Overall, Learning By Doing is a pioneering work in the field of experiential learning, and remains a valuable resource for educators and students interested in this approach to education. Its insights and practical advice continue to be relevant today, more than a century after its initial publication.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
