 +
 +Edward Dale's //Cone of experience//​ was first introduced in his book "​Audio-visual methods in teaching"​ published in 1946. It is an image describing benefit of different types of learning experiences. The Cone was organized by starting with **most abstract experiences from its top**, changing to **most concrete experiences at its bottom**. In later editions of the book it was subjected to some minor changes, but the original cone image can be found [[http://​www.robwaller.org/​blog/​uploaded_images/​realdale-759265.jpg|here]].
 +
 +The importance of Dale's cone of experience is in its assumptions of **how we learn more efficiently** and in **appliance** of such resources or activities **during the educational process**. Assumptions stated in this cone have been of interest to many later psychologists and [[learning_paradigms:​cognitivism#​learning_theories|cognitivist theories]].  ​
 +
 +NOTE: **Bogus percentage numbers** have later been added to Dale's cone. They aren't however in any way related to the original Cone. A collection of bogus cones often used can be found in [[http://​www2.potsdam.edu/​betrusak/​AECT2002/​dalescone_files/​dalescone.html.ppt|presentation]] of Betrus and Januszewski.
