I think I will disagree. Bits of explicit learning embedded into implicit
events when you have explicit goals make a difference.

Meaning in the two spaces I am studying #IndieWeb and #ds106 people engage
in explicit learning all the time. They need to make a gif or learn CSS.

Yet other times folks muck about trying new things.

In each of these events people may have an overarching goal... As I type I
am drawn to Dewey and Art and Experience.

I do find embedding skills in a passion whrn I teach web development is
key. Is Passion implicit learning or the most explicit imaginable?
