HIIT vs. regular jogging/running?

Can someone explain to me what benefits HIIT would have over just jogging @ a constant pace for the same amount of time?

Right now, I am getting used to using the track here @ UCLA and running/sprinting the straights while walking the curves. I know ideally an HIIT workout would be something like 20-30 second intense activity followed by rest for 2-3 minutes (but I'm working on it ) <-- additional question, am I even doing it right?

In any case, I'm under the impression that HIIT is better @ burning fat than just jogging @ a constant pace. Something to do w/ messing around w/ the heart rate (greater variation) or something. Anyone able to enlighten me about this?
