Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This study examines the influence of experiential learning on the academic performance of students in regional applied undergraduate schools. A dataset of 986 students from five universities in Chongqing University City was examined by ordinary least squares regression to investigate the correlation between participation in practical learning activities and academic achievement. The investigation concentrated on four components of experiential learning input: cognitive orientation, practical skills acquisition, student-teacher interaction, and advanced skills development. Findings reveal that all categories have a favorable impact on academic achievements, with the acquisition of practical skills and the development of advanced skills exhibiting the most significant effects. Moreover, disparities in participation levels were noted according to gender, academic year, and topic of study. The findings underscore the need to cultivate experiential learning environments that enhance students’ professional competencies and innovative capacities. This study enhances the existing information on applied education by providing practical insights for policymakers and educators aiming to improve academic success through experiential learning methodologies. Enhancing institutional initiatives in academic competitions, social practice, and teacher-student collaboration can yield more effective training of high-caliber applied talents capable of fulfilling the requirements of contemporary industries.
