What is the sound of a student learning?


Is it the teacher talking?

Is it the No.2 scratch of compliant pencil on paper?

Is it the silent regard of sagacious lectures?

Or is it a soft, murmured discussion with another learner, even in disregard to the "don't talk when teacher is talking" rule?

Or is it the face of surprise, concentration, and reflection?

Maybe it's a loud, impulsive burst of information that seems disconnected to everyone and everything else.

Or maybe, it's a question.
