As technology in society has been developed, people are able to learn knowledge from many methods. Some people believe that learning from books is more efficient way while others do not. This essay will discuss the limits of studying from book and why gaining knowledge from experience is superior.
First and foremost, it is not practical to get knowledge only from books. Especially in fields which requests difficult and technical skills, such as mechanic and medical industries, people are not able to be skillful if they learn the information by only books. Undoubtedly, of course, it is true that people who work in the professional business need to learn basic knowledge for the job. However, it is impossible to carry out operations based on information only and it is a reason why people attend to the practical class. It is essential to gain knowledge from experience for handling medical knifes and engineering tools technically.
Secondly, experiences enable people to learn basic knowledge which people can learn from books. Speaking language of other country, for instance, would be more effective when people have experience living in other country or having foreigner friends. As a matter of fact, Some results shows that students who get a high score in English exam could not speak fluently while others who actually live in overseas make a good result in the same exam. Learning from experience is sometimes more effectual and also help people save their time and extra efforts to gain basic knowledge.
Comparing experience with books has been a topic of a discussion. In my opinion, it is more important to learn knowledge from experience because of its practicality and effectiveness. In conclusion, it is very hard to engage in businesses and industries without prior experience and people are able to learn knowledge from not only the written letters but also actual activities.
