#DPTSTUDENT CHAT TOPIC FOR WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 23, 2013: INDEPENDENT LEARNING OUTSIDE OF THE CLASSROOM

Let’s face it- there is no way to learn everything possible in PT school. We are taught how to be competent entry level physical therapists. However, I want to be more than just competent so I do some of my own independent learning especially on topics I am interested in or find especially challenging. While free time is tight in PT school (you know we all spend most of our Friday nights in pajamas with our nose in a study guide. I really hope it’s not just me!) I thin it is important to stay up to date with current PT events and expand your knowledge.

What do you think? How do you learn outside of PT school? Let’s talk about it Wednesday night at 9pm EST!
