CLO Rubric Development Project Report Form Part 1 – Core Learning Outcome: Discipline and Faculty: Physical Therapist Assistant: Christina Howard, Brian Wilkinson Definition: Applied learning occurs when students use their knowledge and skills to solve problems, often in new contexts. When students also reflect on their experiences, they deepen their learning. By applying learning, students act on their knowledge.
