My daughter knew our state capitol, and many details about it, from a field trip that the class took two years ago. She retained a lot of information about the buildings, site, and state government, because it was a 'real' experience.

I'd rather her have a deeper understanding than a broader set of memorized facts. However, I agree that there are certain facts (like multiplication tables) that simply need to be rote memorized.
