The Authentic Cone

“The Cone of Experience is a visual model, a pictorial device that may help you to think critically about the ways in which concepts are developed. Indeed, you may now be able to apply your ideas about the relationships of interesting, meaningful experiences and abstract, highly symbolic representations.”

From Dale, 1969, p. 134

“[Do] not mistake the Cone device for an exact rank-order of learning processes. You will understand that the Cone classifies instructional messages only in terms of greater or lesser concreteness and abstractness.”

From Dale, 1969, p. 128

“Instructional materials at all levels of the Cone can help us to extend the web of relationships that our concepts involve. Even the most advanced student, therefore, can deepen his understanding of concepts and his enjoyment of life by participating in experiences all along our Cone. … the Cone of Experience stands for activities that are available, in varying degrees.”

From Dale, 1969, p. 132

The cone does NOT include statistics, percentages, or numerical

Lower levels of the cone involve the student as a participant and encourage active learning.

Lower levels include more stimuli and are richer with regard to natural feedback - the consequences of an action.

Higher levels compress information and provide more data faster for those able to process it.

Pictures are remembered (recalled) better than verbal propositions.

Pictures aid in recalling information that has been associated with them

Upper levels of the cone need more instructional support than lower levels.

Rather, The Cone of Experience is a Guide to incorporating multimedia into the learning

experience.

Remember…It is not a steadfast, perfectly constructed data set.
