REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE

This section contains different information and other related literature

and studies that serve as a firm background on the context of the recent

study. It serves as a foundation to support the results of the study. It also

provides valid and plausible interpretations.

Theoretical Lens

Theoretical FrameworkThe present study is anchored on the theory of

Experiential Education Theory whichstates that all programs that are

designed to expand the setting of learning experiences beyondthe traditional

school environment to occupational and community settings and these

programsuse planned experiences to promote cooperation between

traditional educational institutionsand business, industry, labor, government

and community groups to support learning. ThisTheory was first used in 1982

and was popularized by Juliet Miller. This theory is theresearchers’ guide in

determining the Challenges faced by the students in Work

immersion,because this theory explained that all programs are designed to

expand the setting of learningexperiences beyond the traditional school

environment to occupational and community settings.And the present study

discussed about the Challenges faced by the students in Workimmersion.
