  • Abstract:
  • Education is the process of accepting or giving proper information. Education is the most important for future. That’s the reason everyone want to take the best education. Our education system provides us two types of knowledge theoretical and practical. Education is the way of a great future and a best life. Education is important and gives an opportunity to learn skills and accept knowledge. A proper education gives best and understanding about the life. Education is the only key that can develop a whole generation and also make responsible human beings who can gain good teachings and can spread it to many others. But which type of education. One is theory and another is practical. Education is what allows the society increase, and each students. Has its personal individual education systems that perform in any other case. The various procedures to education place unit because of the very reality that each establishment focuses on completely unique elements of training. Theoretical knowledge and practical knowledge are like two sides of the coin, both are equally important. It is necessary to understand both the ends of the spectrum. It takes hours to acquire the art of practical techniques putting in the time to understand how these techniques fit into a larger context and how they work. Practical education is better because it makes you capable enough to know how things happen in the real world. The best part of practical application is whatever we learn through the practical way that knowledge will remain with us for a longer period. In practical application, we learn the facts in an interesting manner which are the best part of learning. From this research study it is analyzed that practical knowledge is important in higher education and there are several reasons to justify why practical knowledge is important in the university or higher education which are as follows. • 90 percent of academic work carried out by students helps them to understand and remember it better. The work performed by average, below or above average student helps them to have clarity about the subject or topic and that lasts with them for a longer duration. • Practical work assists in empirical learning. Every theory of education should be backed with how it can be applied in laboratories or real life because it gives an understanding of how things are relevant when we put it into use. • Hands-on motivates for self-learning. After knowing all the concepts and theories applying them and experiencing the outcomes of it helps in experimenting and learning several things on own. • Practicality leads to be an expert in the respective field as more practice results in bringing out expertise. When students carry out the same task, again and again, they learn how to use concepts in applied knowledge which reflects if any mistake done by them. Rectifying the mistakes enhance their skills and make them experts • The lecture method turns out to be tedious after a certain time hands-on work is a virtuous change. Sitting in the classroom for long hours every day becomes monotonous and reduces the interest of students to learn and concentrate. To imply conceptual things practically retains the interest of students and brings out a positive attitude towards the classroom teachings. • Assignments that include practical work are generally executed in groups. Working in groups assist in infusing social characteristics and values such as sharing, combined effort, kindness, cooperation, etc. • Practical work complements the conceptual knowledge. Practical and theoretical knowledge works for hand in hand, neither of them can help achieve the goal without each other. A student self-learning is the experience of knowing the event happening and identifying them through a practical perspective. This helps them to enhance the analytical knowledge to inspect it with the facts. Hands-on knowledge provides an insight to visualize the things before executing it. Hence, the learning of life truly comes when we implement the knowledge we have gained from different sources. Having the theoretical knowledge but being unaware about how to execute them will not lead to anywhere. Theoretical knowledge is helpful when can apply it in our day-to-day work to gain some experience and learning. Conceptual knowledge is very essential to provide us with the base of the fact and about the things which will be implemented by us.
