Kolb's Model

Below is a description of Kolb's Model. All experiential essays must be written following Kolb's Model. Below
you will find the four sections of Kolb's Model, a brief description of the section, and a sample of how that
section should be addressed. The samples are pulled from the sample essay found on the PLA website, and it is recommended that you review the sample essay for a more complete example of how to write an experiential essay in Kolb's Model. The words on this page do not count toward the essay length requirement.

1.  Description of Concrete Experience

Description: Concrete experience represents your personal participation with the people, places, activities, and events of an experience.  You should describe your involvement relative to the experience, demonstrating the opportunity for learning.

Sample: My career in public relations started off as a staff assistant in the Public Information Office of a community college system. After two years of on-the-job training, I was promoted to the position of community relations officer.

2. Reflections

Description: Reflections represent your thinking and processing relative to the experience.  You should demonstrate your learning by describing the knowledge, skills, and attitudes developed through the reflective process.

Sample: I have observed that some organizations are very good at garnering free publicity. They appear at local events and frequently appear as experts in television and newspaper interviews.

3. Generalizations/Principles/Theories

Description: Generalizations, principles, and theories are constructs that organize and guide academic learning.  A typical college course is built around several such generalizations, principles, and/or theories. 

In this stage, you identify and describe the generalizations, principles, and/or theories to demonstrate your learning outcomes.  These learning outcomes result from analyzing and reflecting on your experience.  The generalizations, principles, and/or theories should be comparable to those addressed in typical college courses and should match the course description selected.

Sample: Whether working with large or small one-owner organizations, it makes no difference in establishing rules, guidelines, or policies regarding image and public relations. Developing a detailed plan of action makes it much easier to schedule and implement appropriate applicable strategies.

4. Testing and Application

Description: Testing and/or application represent situations in which the new learning can be used.  You should describe how you did, or could in the future, test and/or apply what you learned.

Sample: A fun promotional idea that emerged as a by-product profit center for the bookstore was t-shirts.
We printed t-shirts with the bookstore logo on the back with advertisements for the bookstore on the front.
