Higher Education in Sweden

I have moved to Sweden in a year or so to study a STEM area in a university.

I noticed that here the pedagogy in all courses is centred in exercises, like weekly homework, usually challenging, in my previous educational experiences I have never had something like this. What I find more intriguing is that students seem to learn from the process of doing exercises, for me exercises would normally be to consolidate knowledge, not to actually learn from them.

I was used to read references and then exercises, but here I have the feeling that the standard is exercises and eventually references.

I would like to see what other people find about this?
