Learning experiences should be two-way interactions, so you know when learners understand correctly and when they don’t. • All of the theory in the world won’t help you as much as spending time in your learners’ world, and testing your designs early and often.
Julie Dirksen • Design for How People Learn (Voices That Matter)
Experience must be followed by reflective thought and an internal processing that links the experience with previous learning, transforming the learner’s previous understanding in some manner. Learning, therefore, takes place within a cycle that includes action, reflection, and application.
Bruce Wrenn • Enhancing Learning by Integrating Theory and Practice

Stephen Wendel • Designing for Behavior Change: Applying Psychology and Behavioral Economics
