Metaphor for learning

So I think the functioning of my nikon camera is a great metaphor for learning. The lens is representational of my students' view of their world/classroom. They need to focus on what they're viewing in order for the process to begin. They allow the light (education/meaning) to enter their cameras (brain) in order to make an impression on their film/sensor (memory). Once the memory is there, the information needs to be developed (analyzed) in order to complete the process and make an effective image (lasting impression and outcome).
