Oh, yes. I watch the action using my imagination as I read. Actually I am sometimes confused about if I have read a story or watched it in a movie. If a book doesn't get my imagination started, then I soon stop reading it.

One interesting thing is that I don't enjoy reading fiction in Swedish, my native language, as much as in English. I don't seem to get my imagination going as easily in Swedish for some reason. It seems that my mind gets underutilized and I get easily distracted. But that (usually) don't apply to non-fiction.

My learning strategy when reading non-fiction is to imagine, while I read, that I am teaching/telling someone about what I am learning, or using what I read for some practical purpose. So my imagination is very active even when I read non-fiction.

So I imagine that I learn by imagining things ...
