In addition, Montaigne believed that experience was a key element of learning. Tutors needed to teach students through experience, rather than through rote memorization as often practised with book learning.[2]: 62 : 67  Montaigne argued that students would otherwise become passive adults, uncritically obedient and unable to think independently[7];: 354  no important knowledge would be retained, and no skills would be acquired.[2]: 62  Montaigne believed that learning through experience was superior to learning through books.[3] For this reason, he encouraged tutors to educate their students through practice, travel, and human interaction. By doing so, he argued, students would become active learners, who could claim knowledge for themselves.[citation needed]
