We all learn best when we take an active part in finding out things that are
new to us!
• A class in which we take part in discussions is more interesting than a class in
which we just listen to a lecture.
• A class in which we can see for ourselves what things look like and how
they work, is more interesting than a class in which we only talk about
things.
• A class in which we not only talk and see, but actually do and make and
discover things for ourselves, is exciting! When we learn by finding things
out for ourselves, by building on experience we already have, we do not
forget. What we learn through active discovery becomes a part of us.
