Reflective learning - what is Education?

In Andy's lectures on "What is Education" we have been doing a lot of work on SEN (Special Education Needs). These lessons involve a lot of talking, often about subjects that don't seem relevant to the subject. He seems to skim through the readings he gives us so that they don't often make a lot of sense until the 3rd or 4th time they've been read.
Personally, this type of learning isn't very good for me. I don't find learning through reading very easy. We currently have a reading on SEN and are expected to read up on the Salamanca Statement (An agreement between many countries about fair rights for children). I know I'm going to struggle with this.
We also have to read up of NASEN which is the National Association for Special Educational Needs.
