Reading and writing worked ok with me for a good part of my formative years.

I can read and take notes on a given chapter of American history and it will take me some average time to feel comfortable with the material, but if the information is part of a documentary or audio\/video lecture I can store and analyze the information faster.<\/p>\n<p>Thus, I am trying to compile audio and video library of different things that are part of my academic interests. Of course, the best information will always be in books, which take longer to make\/turn into other media. Some books never see the light in formats other than the original publication and therefore it is unavoidable to approach the information contained in them traditionally.<\/p>","appTitle":"Do you find it easier to read, listen to, watch, write down, and\/or experience what you are trying to learn?","appTags":["learning","read","listen-to","watch","write-down","experience"],"musingPostType":"answer","appParentPermlink":"pkpmegsaq","app":"musing\/1.1","appParentAuthor":"kaypace","appCategory":"learning"}" |
