Students are usually curious about experiencing physics phenomena, for example, feeling a torque, sensing heat transfer, observing the spectra of light, and measuring voltages and currents. If presented in a proper way, these experiences will excite the imagination and understanding. By creating a stronger experience, the likelihood of transferring these ideas to long-term memory and understanding is increased. That is more important than learning to solve clever numerical problems with no sense of relevance to life or career.
