Learning does not follow one universal method. Reading, listening, discussion, practical work, and teaching can suit different people or different subjects. Preparing a lesson means returning to old notes and learning the material again. Seminar discussion also forces an instructor to examine the students' positions alongside his own. Teaching becomes an active part of historical inquiry, with conclusions tested through explanation and debate.
