Practical or class room education ?????

[Abby]

According to me..thr as to be a balance between the two depending upon the subjects..
some subjects lik Taxation, A/c, Satistics .... cannot be learned practically while sm subjects lik marketi OB required the field wrk....
hence the proper blend is to be found out

[air]

hello... i think there should be a mixture of both...itshould start wid a classroom session followed by a practical session ,showing how to implement the things u leant in classroom practically...:tea:

[anushri_12345@yahoo.co.in]

practical education...........
coz many of the things studied in classroom do not apply practically

[shwetagirl08]

thr many thnk wich we study in the classroon in never actually appicable practically. so i thnk thr shd be a proper balance between both

[kunalsd]

Both r required......

Classroom Education gives you the theory knowledge,

Practical Education gives you real life knowledge.

So, Both r very much necessary.

[fear_chirag]

classroom knowledge forms the base to enter the real world and practical knowledge helps build ones experience

[Maverickinsky]

classroom training actually equips us with knowledge which allows us to understand issues in a more concrete way, & field work gives us better understanding of ground realities prevailing in the industry

[simran_bhatia]

I think in this context that both types of learning is required as in some cases there is a need of a tutor who make the things learn through his experience whereas in some cases, exposure helps us in understanding the concepts....
so there should be a mixture of both in the learning process...

[sachinkothari00707]

Actually it require only practice but theory play a major role

[RC1327]

anyday practical gyan is better than class room coaching everyone in the corporate house values experience classroom coaching aid in understanding the problem and ho to proceed in a manner but certain decision skills comes through experience only.people like bill gates are the symbols of having sound practical and common sense

[deepakraam]

hi,
there shud be balance of both.You shud learn the concepts in classroom and only in practical session you will learn where to apply.Proper blend of both completes the learning.

Practical depends on the Course.......................................

[beone]

combination of both. you can not think both of them as seperate................

[teja12]

Practical Education is a must.............................................. ...........................................

this will help for sure as practicality is very imp to undstnd the aspects of concepts in education....:SugarwareZ-028:

[kamallohia]

I am in favour of practicals.
But simultaneously classroom training is also required.

[rahul_parab2006]

There should be balance between both practical and class education....

Classroom education should be accompanied by practicals.......Professors shud teach theory and concepts by giving practical examples in between...........

there is automatically practical work (going to industries/companies, survey, project report, etc) comes thru internals in the courses like mba, bba, bms, etc while preparing for projects, assignments n presentations...........

[jayu...]

well i think....both r essential..bt frankly speakng indian learning lags behind....in findng bal betn the two...more theoritical knowledge is imparted which more or less is considered to be good only upto exams....

[shippu1988]

I feel tat practical knowledge is undoubtedly better than theory knowledge.

[shahjatin.83]

there has to mixture of both in 80:20 ratio..
Management funda which we learn at our B-school can be validate to some extent through practical training..

[Swarup Datta]

A judicious mix of both. Practical education is and always be a supplement to the theoritical knowledge and in no way can substitute the theoritical training. In short, Practical training facilitates the better understanding of the concepts learned in theoritical training.

[viseshk]

Practical Education makes sense for working professionals, I am doing an MBA from LIBA, Chennai, and have been working for the past 10 years. Understanding concepts is much easier with the work experience, but even here, we do take a lot from the classroom sessions we have. A mix of both would be ideal.

More than anything i think we have to get out of the writing exams mode, embrace technology and come up with a better solution to handwritten exams. Because I believe the way we study will change with the way we would do our exams.

[prabhu1980]

It should be a mixture of both ,
Theory First and then comes the Application.
Theory is little , but applications are vast.
Hence its possible to study theory in class and applications in real life.

[mridulz]

well.. of course thr has to more of practical education.....coz otherise noone's gonna sit thr n apply wht they've learnt

Hey...I totally agree to this..deres never an option between white nd black...life lives in the grey areas....practicality has its own importance..but to understand fundamentals, theoritical knowledge is imperative...
