Consider this situation:

A person watches a well-produced documentary about quantum physics. They're completely immersed and fascinated for two hours, following along with the explanations and visualizations. They enjoy the experience and can repeat several interesting facts afterward. However, they haven't questioned the information, connected it to prior knowledge, or attempted to apply these concepts. A week later, they remember they watched an interesting show but retain only fragmentary information without conceptual understanding.

Writing in progress …
