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
=======
ScienceWorks Hands-On Museum in Ashland, Oregon, was founded as a non-profit organization in 2001 by a small group of families. The goal was to use an existing 26,000 sq. ft. building to create an interactive science center, to serve the region's schools toward Oregon State science standards. Over 100 hands-on exhibits were built, both in the Museum's shop and by volunteers. Programs were developed, including: field trips for school children, summer camps, live science demonstrations, and weekend themed programming.
In 2018, ScienceWorks completed a strategic planning process. The Museum's mission is to be a champion of science: inspiring curiosity, wonder and exploration through engaging interactive science experiences.” ScienceWorks' school programs serve 16 counties and 24 school districts in Southern Oregon and Northern California with field trips and classroom outreach. 57% of the schools served are low-income, Title I schools., and 78% of students are from rural areas. In 2017-2018, all 1,000 Medford School District third-graders visited ScienceWorks. In total, over 9,000 school children benefit from the Museum's school programs each year.
ScienceWorks designs and constructs exhibits to display on-site and to travel to other museums. These exhibits include Take Flight, Sportsology and Noise! The latest exhibit designed and constructed in the Museum's shop is Pterosaurs: Ancient Rulers of the Sky. Dan Ruby is ScienceWorks' Executive Director, since June 2018. Dan has a Master’s degree in Secondary Science Education from the University of Nevada, Reno. He worked at the Fleischmann Planetarium in Reno since 2005, four years as Director.
