ach of us ‘gets’ information in different ways, with varying degrees of benefit depending on the specific medium. The senses are different in their ‘efficiency,’ ‘learning’ and ‘retention.’ As it is, only a relatively small proportion of what we sense, whether by hearing or sight, is retained accurately or usefully.
