Applied Learning

Applied learning refers to an educational approach whereby students learn by engaging in direct application of skills, theories and models. Students apply knowledge and skills gained from traditional classroom learning to hands-on and/or real –world settings, creative projects or independent or directed research, and in turn apply what is gained from applied experience to academic learning. The applied learning activity can occur outside the classroom of the traditional classroom experience and/or be embedded as part of the course. (SUNY definition)
