Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
The Science Museum of the University of Coimbra (Museu da Ciência da Universidade de Coimbra) gathers the historical scientific collections of several units of the University of Coimbra, in Coimbra, Portugal. It includes the collection of scientific instruments from the 18th and 19th century of the Physics Museum, the collections of botanics, zoology, anthropology and mineralogy of the Natural History Museum, and the collections of the Astronomical Observatory and the Geophysical Institute of the University of Coimbra.
Formerly there were several museums in the university, including a museum of physics, a museum of zoology, a museum of natural history, and a museum of mineralogy and geology, which were managed by different university departments. They merged in 2006/2007 to form the Science Museum of the University of Coimbra.
Most of these collections date back to the reform of the University promoted by the Marquis of Pombal in 1772, where the teaching of the sciences took major importance, and are lodged in the contemporary buildings of the 18th century. This constitutes the most important science collection in Portugal and one of the most important ones in Europe.

Júlio Cesar Melatti - Um filme etnográfico póstumo
Em 1971, o antropólogo Júlio Cesar Melatti estudava os índios Krahô, no Tocantins quando acompanhou o cineasta Heinz Forthmann nas filmagens do rito da batata doce. Os dois eram professores da Universidade de Brasília, Melatti no Departamento de Antropologia e Forthmann no Departamento de Cinema. Forthmann faleceu em 1978 não tendo concluído o filme. Em 2015, quando completaria 100 anos, um de seus ex-alunos, o professor da UNB Marcos de Sousa Mendes, editou e lançou, postumamente, o filme Rito Kraô.
Algumas histórias sobre as filmagens são aqui contadas por Melatti.
Entrevista gravada em Brasília, em 2019.
Júlio Cesar Melatti é doutor em Antropologia e professor, hoje reformado (aposentado), da Universidade de Brasília. Seu texto sobre história da Antropologia no Brasil pode ser encontrado no link abaixo:
Heinz Forthmann (1915 - 1978) fotógrafo e cineasta com trabalhos relevantes para a etnografia brasileira, especialmente a partir de seu trabalho no Serviço de Proteção ao Índio (SPI) e de sua estreita colaboração com o antropólogo Darcy Ribeiro, foi tema da tese de mestrado do Professor Marcos de Sousa Mendes cujo texto completo pode ser encontrado no link abaixo:
A Brief History Lesson and More with Portugal
Portugal went to the Science Museum and ventured onto the tug boat exhibit that looks out at the Mississippi River and some old homes in St.Paul.
SOCIENTIZE: Taking Citizen Science to Senior Universities
The Senior University of Águeda hosted a Workshop on Citizen Science - For an active Society in Science organized by SOCIENTIZE, a European Citizen Science project, spurred on Portugal by the University of Coimbra (UC) and the Science Museum of the University of Coimbra, which aims to promote the active participation of ordinary citizens in studies and scientific experiments.
In this initiative, the senior students collaborated in experiments of the SOCIENTIZE project covering various areas of science, such as cell biology, linguistics and astronomy. Through an online platform, SOCIENTIZE project intends to bring science to all of an educational form and integral with the main purpose to promote a more active and engaged society in the scientific creation process.
The LookUp project @ the Bloomfield Science Museum, Jerusalem
There is a wonderful sense of magic whenever our hands silhouette suddenly take the form of a barking dog, a gliding bird or an adorable bunny rabbit rubbing its nose.
However, that enchanting animated experience is quickly lost when our hands lose formation and return to their mundane roles.
The project attempts to briefly extend the short life of a silhouette bird.
We do so by having the silhouette morph into a projected image of a bird that with a happy chirp, suddenly gains life and joins a flock of birds flying on the virtual sky of the room's ceiling.
participants actively introduce more and more silhouette that make the space come alive.
