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 National Institute of Science and Technology (NIST) was established in 1996 and is being managed by the SM Charitable Educational Trust under the vision and guidance of Sri Surendra Mudali. The institute is approved by the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) and is affiliated to the Biju Patnaik University of Technology (BPUT). The institute campus of 60 acres is located in the Palur Hills about 12 km from Berhampur and three hours drive from Bhubaneswar.
The institute has grown under the leadership of its founder, Professor Sangram Mudali – director, Professor Geetika Mudali – placement director and Professor Ajit Kumar Panda – principal. It its 17 years, it has produced four BOYSCAST faculty scholars who have been funded by Government of India to pursue postgraduate research in the United States and Germany. NIST has produced three Fulbright scholars. Three of its faculty has won the Samant Chandrasekhar Young Scientist Award given by the Government of Orissa. Two AICTE funded emeritus professors worked at NIST. The faculty of the institute have been awarded three URSI Young Scientist Awards. More than twenty-five post doctorate scholarships have been awarded to institute faculty. The faculties of the institute are alumni of IIT's, IISc, ISI, Jadavpur University and Calcutta University, etc. More than 35 faculty of the institute are from the IITs alone which is a testimony to its ability to attract and retain top-notch faculty.
