In the "old days", one of the recommendations for learning photographers was to "burn" a lot of film. Although this advice was frequently abused, with a lot of shooting without much thought, the basic idea was that one can test a lot of techniques, settings and composition to see what works and also generally learn what things look like when photographed.------------
Digital allows this learning process to take place without the cost (and time, if one develops at home) that this learning process incurs. It can be a great teaching tool in the same way that "burning film" was, but in a way that makes it much more accessible.
