Article#5: What is the Cone of Experience? What are the sensory aids in the Cone of Experience? What are it's implications?

• The cone of experience is a visual model, a pictorial device that presents bands of experience arranged to degree of abstraction and not degree of difficulty. 
• The sensory aids often overlap and sometimes blend into one another. For example a motion picture, they can be silent or they can combine sight and sound. 
• The implication is to avoid teaching directly at the symbolic level of thought without adequate foundation of the concrete.
