First two chapters above all describe the history and present of experiential learning, bring key words and introduce its principles and elements. The third chapter is practical and tries to sketch the realization of adaptive courses in practice. It is based on the survey using guestionnaires focused on e.g. use of games, feedback, motivation instruments, principles of experiential learning etc. These guestionnaires were sent to secondary schools in South Bohemia, that adaptive courses organize. These courses has been organized shortly in the Czech Republic. However, their use is still being extended, which helps mainly children coming from basic to secondary schools to make this transition easier.
