Learning need not be hands-on …

Stuart Buck shares this:

“I’ve often heard the claim that people will remember less of what they merely read or hear, but much more of what they ‘do’ in some sort of hands-on activity. I just found a lengthy post from 2006 where Will Thalheimer (a researcher and blogger) completely demolishes that myth.”

(I’ll refrain from sharing Thalheimer’s link, since I have copied the entirety of Buck’s post here.)
