"All good coaches know that all the practice in the world can't take the place of actual game-time experience in the development of an athlete. This is nonetheless true for students pursuing academic success. Providing students with physical experiences, in the form of scientific research endeavors or service learning projects, is the stuff that makes what you're teaching seem important, makes concepts come alive, and fosters creative and independent thinking."
