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 Academy of Natural Sciences of Drexel University, formerly the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia, is the oldest natural science research institution and museum in the Americas. It was founded in 1812, by many of the leading naturalists of the young American republic with an expressed mission of the encouragement and cultivation of the sciences. For over two centuries of continuous operations, the Academy has sponsored expeditions, conducted original environmental and systematics research, and amassed natural history collections containing more than 17 million specimens. The Academy also has a long tradition of public exhibits and educational programs for both schools and the general public.

The Metropolitan Revolution: Philadelphia as a Model for the Nation
A revolution is stirring in America. In the face of federal gridlock, economic stagnation, and fiscal turmoil, power in the United States is shifting away from Washington and state capitols toward our major cities and metropolitan areas.
On July 11, 2013, NextCity.org in collaboration with The Academy of Natural Sciences of Drexel University, Brookings Institution, and The Reinvestment Fund hosted a panel discussion in Philadelphia, The Metropolitan Revolution: Philadelphia as a Model for the Nation.
Following introductory remarks from Don Hinkle-Brown, president and CEO of The Reinvestment Fund (jump to 5:57), Bruce Katz, co-author of The Metropolitan Revolution: How Cities and Metros are Fixing our Broken Politics and Fragile Economy, gave a brief presentation on the recently-published book (jump to 9:16). Panelists, including Philadelphia's Mayor Michael Nutter, discussed how communities and the networks of pragmatic leaders who govern them are tackling issues faced by our cities that Washington won't (or can't) solve.
Jump to 24:02 to hear the panel discussion. The Q&A begins at 1:09:53.
For more on the topic, check out an edited excerpt from The Metropolitan Revolution here:

215 651 8329 Discovering Fossils combines the latest scientific knowledge and fieldwork to create a continually up-to-date library of resources.
The study of the prehistoric world provides a lifelong interest that is as variable in discoveries as it is dramatic in length of time. From the initial building blocks of life to the birth of plants, insects, dinosaurs and even mankind, the science of palaeontology leaves no stone unturned. The initial study of palaeontology soon grows into a fascinating range of practical and mental challenges that enrich and enthuse the individual.
Fossils inspire the individual to consider prehistoric life in the context of former environments and appreciate how global events have shaped the modern world. Like the pages of a book, the fossil record provides a storyboard of dramatic changes in the earth's history, each period leaving its own unique legacy in the rocks. From this evidence the palaeontologist can form an understanding of a truly amazing prehistoric world. marketing videos,marketing jobs,marketing planing,marketing mix,marketing plan,marketing strategies,marketing news,marketing firms denver,marketing ideas,marketingsherpa diablo ninebark,tree form, tree form diablo, ninebark tree,tree for sale, willow trees california,willow trees colorado,willow trees children's, centre redditch,willow trees canada,willow trees collection,willow trees drive blackburn,willow trees diseases,willow trees description,willow trees dying,willow trees draynor,willow trees daughter,willow trees draynor, village,willow trees damage,willow tree demdaco,willow trees, dead branche,salix pharmaceuticals,salix alba,salix babylonica,salix nigra,salix discolor,salix juanita village,salix caprea,salix os,salix ventures,salix exigua,salix,salix alba,salix amygdaloides,salix arctica,salix at juanita village,salix alba (willow) bark extract,salix alba britzensis,salix alba flame,salix arenaria,salix alaxensis,salix alba vitellina,pussy willow,pussy willows,pussy willow wreath,pussy willow lights,pussy willow branches,pussy willow song,pussy willow bush,pussy willow images,pussy willow care,pussy willows cattery,pussy willow,pussy willow wreath,pussy willow lights,pussy willow branches,pussy willow song,pussy willow plant,pussy willow bush,pussy willow images,pussy willow care So...
