Strongly agree. I would always fall asleep in class in college.

Once I got into the workforce I would avoid this learning gap by creating side projects or taking extra work which was aimed at learning specific new things.

If I sat through talks or presentations I would just information dump into a text file which I would data mine later. The taking of the notes helped some with retention, but organizing it according to my own thought process helped make it more navigable later when I was stuck on something.

Works pretty well for me in my career. YMMV if you try the same thing.
