You Are Hired as a New Faculty Member by a Dental

You are hired as a new faculty member by a dental hygiene program and are assigned to teach the community oral health course. You review the course materials, learning activities, and projects for the course handed down by the previous course instructor, who has retired. Never having taught before and not having had a positive experience in your community oral health course as a student, you decide to do some research on different ways to teach in relation to community oral health.
-Your primary experience with learning as a student outside of clinical courses was the traditional cognitive approach. You had limited experience with experiential learning. You research different teaching approaches and find information about the value of experiential learning. Which statement accurately describes experiential learning in comparison with or in contrast to the traditional cognitive approach?

A) Experiential learning can be used to shift the focus of learning from the confines of the classroom to practical, real-world situations in the community.
B) Experiential learning is more appropriate for the visual learner, and cognitive learning is more appropriate for the oral learner.
C) Each approach is based on a different psychological theory; you can select which one to use based on the psychological theory that appeals to you.
D) Both have the same learning outcomes.
