Abstract

An important message in the various Chapters of this book was that the discipline of Applied Learning involves engaging in meaningful and authentic learning experiences, where learning activities are structured to encourage and support learners to think, collaborate, communicate and engage positively with the world around them. Applied Learning activities involve creative student-focused learning projects, independent and directed research, or simulated real-world situations, and should be directly informed by a real world context through the strategic application of skills, theories and models. Pivotal to the successful application of the Applied Learning process, is for the learners to immerse themselves in critical reflection so as to (i) cement learning, (ii) enhance application, (iii) transfer retention and (iv) sharpen powers of recall (Stanchfield 2013). Authors in this Book have applied this critical reflection to the subject of their individual chapters.
