Institutional Users of Experiential Learning Packages: A Preliminary View from Publishers' Adoption Lists

Abstract

This paper reports upon data drawn from publishers' adoption lists for experiential learning packages. United States educational institution users were Identified and data are presented for user characteristics such as type of user, institutional support, and institutional average number of students for each of the experiential learning packages. Analysis of the data reveals that adopters tend to be 4-year rather than 2-year institutions and public rather than private. Some limitations of the study are presented along with suggestions for further research.
