Recognise current learning (11)
I believe the answer is:
acknowledge
'recognise' is the definition.
('acknowledge' can be a synonym of 'recognize')
'current learning' is the wordplay.
'current' becomes 'ac' (alternating current).
'learning' becomes 'knowledge' (I've seen this before).
'ac'+'knowledge'='ACKNOWLEDGE'
(Other definitions for acknowledge that I've seen before include "Admit - recognise - thank" , "Admit the truth of (something)" , "Express thanks for" , "Confirm (receipt)" , "Confess" .)
