One of the imperatives in experiential learning is finding the dynamic ice breaker that creates a congenial, collegial atmosphere and segues into a resonant learning experience. No matter the topic or issue to be investigated, the ice breaker signals and ultimately confirms for the learner whether (1) they will be heard and supported by the faculty leads, (2) there is an overarching, relevant purpose to the exercise, (3) they are in a supportive, comfortable environment and (4) they have ultimately made the right choice in choosing the session.
