Absolutely! I think the memorizing part is very key in school, so that just gets lumped together with learning, even though they are very different actions in our brains. I learn things very quickly, regardless of how it's presented, but I remember things best with action - work stuff I remember via repetition, other things via writing long hand a few times.
