It is been said "Not every thing that is learned is contained in books." Compare and contrast knowledge gained from experience and knowledge gained from books. In your opinion which source is more important? why?

The Books contain only relevant information, there are still multitude of things to be learnt.

This

essay will compare and contrast the knowledge gained from books and experience.

Firstly

, the books are primary sources of information for the pioneers, who does not have a basic knowledge about the topic, wherein, it might take more time for them to understand the purpose.

For example

, a fresher with no prior technical background must read through the manual to have an idea about working of the system.

In contrast

, an experienced person takes comparatively less time to start off with the system.

For example

, a mechanic can rectify the problem faster than an engineer, as he has come across almost all varieties of problems throughout his journey.

Secondly

, interpersonal skills can be developed by experience, which cannot be acquired by reading books. While working, People get to interact with many of their clients globally, which improves their communication skills and boosts up their confidence level, whereas, these skills can never be obtained by reading.

In addition

, experienced ones are more dynamic, as they deal with real time projects, wherein, they need to adapt to the customer requirements.

On the other hand

, with the information acquired from books, it is difficult to deal with live projects.

For instance

, a survey conducted in Harward university shows that the experienced people can come up with a solution faster than the freshers.

Thus

, an experienced person is more adaptable to the changes. To conclude, due to the understanding abilities and relationship qualities of experienced ones, I personally believe that it is more advantageous than being a book worm.

Include an introduction and conclusion

A conclusion is essential for IELTS writing task 2. It is more important than most people realise. You will be penalised for missing a conclusion in your IELTS essay.

The easiest paragraph to write in an essay is the conclusion paragraph. This is because the paragraph mostly contains information that has already been presented in the essay – it is just the repetition of some information written in the introduction paragraph and supporting paragraphs.

The conclusion paragraph only has 3 sentences:

Summary
Restatement of thesis
Prediction or recommendation

Example:

To summarize, a robotic teacher does not have the necessary disciple to properly give instructions to students and actually works to retard the ability of a student to comprehend new lessons. Therefore, it is clear that the idea of running a classroom completely by a machine cannot be supported. After thorough analysis on this subject, it is predicted that the adverse effects of the debate over technology-driven teaching will always be greater than the positive effects, and because of this, classroom teachers will never be substituted for technology.

Start your conclusion with a linking phrase. Here are some examples:

In conclusion
To conclude
To summarize
Finally
In a nutshell

Schools should stop using books for teaching to learn as they find them boring, and use films, TV and computers instead. To what extent do you agree with this?
Nowadays, education and teaching are changing rapidly, which causes students to become more and more reliant on digital technologies. These digital technologies help students become independent learners. However, traditional methods which are used in many educational institutions make students develop their intellectual abilities. I strongly agree with the second proposition that conventional methods of learning are more efficient.
