Great tip, but as a teacher, I just want to add one quick caveat: multitasking while attempting to learn doesn't work so well, at least that's what current research suggests. For a survey of information, listening while driving is fine, but you'll need to review afterward. For best results, do the review a couple of hours before a good sleep, even a one-hour nap will help. New research suggests that this is when info goes into long term memory. And if you do two learning tasks, you will tend to retain the last one. I'm sorry I'm not documenting this for you, but I really should be grading papers now and not procrastinating like this.
