Education comes not from books but from practical experience



                                                   
                            

                          Education comes not from books but from practical experience. Books and practical experience both have important roles to play in the process education of individual. Sometimes, both medium of education has its own worth and both inter depended, there are people that can learn more from books than from practical experiences and some people are here that can learn more easily from practical. We should concentrate both on books reading as well as to get practical expreicne. There are some situations where we need them both and other cases where we need one only.
                          
The use of books to present abstract ideas is one kind of education that is better learn than practical experience. For example, in math we learn formulas and we solve the question based on that formulas. Same like in history, we do not need to go physically back in time and attend the events or the conflict that happened a hundreds years ago. We only need to reading from book to know about it.
                            The use of books in every institution also has been made an important aspect because without books, quality education cannot be achieved. For instance, there are situations where you have to read a book first to learn the required manual skills before applying what has been read practically. Take the case of someone who has never read a book on doctoring and wants to perform a surgery. Without that knowledge gained from books, they do not know the basic procedures to carry it out.


                          Most people believe that experiences like parenting, pregnancy, cooking, driving and so forth cannot be known if they are not practiced physically but nevertheless, there are books on all these issues which will provide a better insight on what is experience. Books only give experiences that have not happened in one’s life. Books and experience, both of them work together to become surgeons or auto mechanics.
                            In my opinoin, it depends on several things, materials matter, job skills . Some people can learn by reading books and absorb vast quntites of information, others learn by making mistakes, however, combination of two approaches work best .Education is when you read the fine prints and experience is what you get when you don’t. Similarly only books reading has no worth one should apply what he learnt in practical field then he will become a expert of that field.

  1. With out the knowledge gathered from books life in this world would be pointless, or very hard; due to the fact that you would not have the basic understanding of the things of life. The education from books provides the core information, upon which experience is built on. Books though do not have wrong information are helpful to practical it become a experience.

  2. Where would we be without the knowledge presented in books, and without reading them. It is however essential that children, as young as three begin appreciating books and the knowledge available to them through the written language. By going to school, children begin to explore ideas and thoughts that would never encounter during their every day life. Core sciences such as chemistry, physics, mathematics, and biology are mandatory to be learn in school and from books. The books present the information clearly and sequentially. The books have practice problems to solidifying the concept. Furthermore, the Mendelian theory of evolution may never be tested by students it is more useful to read a book and understand the concept and theory that way. There are aspects of life which not everyone has the ability to do, unless every one would for instance become and expert in Mendelian theory.

  3. Education comes not from books but from practical experiences. An educated person has always been described as someone who reads many diverse books, while it is also commonly said that experience is the best teacher. The widely debated topic of the primary source of education has been a prima discussion as people tend to mix up the importance of books and practical experiences in the process of education

  4. However, one is left with the notion that the major cause for success in Finland is more cultural than administrative. In Finland, reading is encouraged from birth. Electrical Installation
