Put theory into practice within or outside of the classroom when you take a course with hands-on learning. These classes include labs, simulations, capstone projects, studio work, performances or exhibits, where you apply what you’ve learned and show what you can do.

How you can learn
Artistic performances/exhibits
Drama, dance, music or visual arts events, exhibitions or performances designed to showcase artistic work or creative processes. Can allow students to gain experience with careers in the arts.
Capstone project
A final year project that integrates what students have learned and requires application of theory.
Course-integrated project
As part of a course, projects based in the community or in industry designed to apply some course material to a real-world problem.
Hands-on workshops
Provide direct experience and active learning with a new skill, tool or technology. Often shorter than a course, ranging from a few hours to several days.
Laboratory/Clinics
Hands-on application of class concepts through observation, measurement, testing and experimentation. Can be scientific or non-scientific.
Practicum
A course in which a portion consists of a practical training in which theory is put into practice.
Simulations
Sometimes computer-based, simulations engage students interactively to apply prior knowledge and experiment to solve realistic problems.
City School
Using an experiential learning approach, City School provides an opportunity for students to research, develop, and prototype solutions to real-world challenges.
