In the Dairy Advancement Program, 4-H goals for young people are accomplished by using dairy program knowledge and the “learn by doing” method. Studies show that such experience-based, action-oriented learning has the greatest long-range impact on the learner. 4-H makes a special effort to tailor its programs and teaching methods to totally involve youth in hands-on learning. This process is called “exploratory learning.” Exploratory learning encourages youth to explore, reflect, and apply knowledge.
