As with most situations, I think it depends. For example, it depends on your objectives, and the 'domains' they touch upon - that is, do you have only cognitive goals - knowing, understanding, etc. But "doing" things often include psychomotor skills, right? Dental hygiene certainly with true hands-on skill and technique is one, but what about driving a car, flying a plane or riding a bike? Playing the trumpet? Skills you can't learn solely by reading or taking an eLearning. You'll go a long way engaging your learners in authentic learning activities, such as hands-on practice in realistic situations so long as they support your objectives. What is it you want people to know or be able to do at the conclusion of training? If everything you do supports that and generates new knowledge and skill, you have a good shot at hitting your mark.
