101 Ways to Make Learning Active Beyond the Classroom by 
Experiential Learning by Minimal Guidance or Direct Instruction
"I keep coming back to how dichotomously pitting pedagogical approaches against one another ends up trivializing the complexity of teaching and learning. Given all the different things that we teach, given all the skills we seek to develop, given all the different learners that face us, given all our different strengths as teachers, isn’t it a bit of a stretch to imagine that either telling students or letting them discover is the definitive right answer?"

Making the Most of Fieldwork Learning Experiences Dr. Glen T. Hvenegaard is a professor of geography and environmental studies at the University of Alberta, Augustana campus.
Fieldwork refers to any component of the curriculum that involves leaving the classroom and learning through firsthand experience. Most instructors incorporate fieldwork to help students understand theory, develop skills, integrate knowledge, build tacit knowledge, develop meaning in places, and work with peers and instructors in alternate settings.
Six Steps to Designing Effective Service Learning Courses
By: Mary Bart
A biology class works with a local environmental organization to test water samples from the Chesapeake Bay. A graphics design class helps a non-profit organization build a new website. A childhood development class serves as mentors to at-risk students in an after-school program.
These aren’t examples of a few kind-hearted college students volunteering their time, but rather part of formalized service-learning programs designed to achieve specific learning outcomes.
