Humans tend to learn by taking information into their brains through their five senses.
Unless you are a wine taster, you probably do not learn too much by taste, and unless you are taking a chemistry lab, not too much by smell. Touch is very important for artists, airline pilots, and the blind. Those of us in the sciences rely on vision and hearing for most of our information, so it should come as no surprise that the formal educational experiences available to us are designed to provide audio and visual information. There are further differences in learning styles worth mentioning here. Some of us learn better with language and others pictures, while others learn better by doing.
