Participated in Alternative Winter Break and Alternative Spring Break in 2019

"I think it is so important for students to be involved in these trips in order for them to gain new experiences that push their limits. 在旅途中, I grew in my faith and stepped out of my comfort zone in many areas — from construction to even just opening up to others."

What's the difference between experiential and applied learning?

Experiential learning is the overarching area that includes options such as applied learning. 应用学习是体验学习的一种形式, but specifically relates to students applying what they have learned in a classroom setting to an appropriate real-world environment.
