However

, some people, believe education to be mere memorising of facts blindly and not an activity that requires application of mind.
Hence

, I totally disagree with
this

 viewpoint and in
this

 essay I would be discussing the reasons for the same. Education enlightens an individual's mind so that he can progress from darkness to light.If one studies, facts blindly without knowing how to apply them practically, he would be making a fool of himself. " A jack of all trades, but a master of none " the famous English proverb would be the most apt description of

 a person. Unless, one's mind is applied fully to his studies, he wouldn't be able to make any serious contribution to the society.
For example

, if Einstein had merely memorized facts, the light bulb would never have been invented. He applied what he studied to the problems he had before him.
Furthermore

, there are many courses which require practical experience like that of Engineers and Doctors and not mere classroom training, and not providing them with the requisite infrastructure creates a new generation of unemployed youth. To summarize, memorizing facts blindly has never created nor will it create new innovative ideas. In a world,

 fast changing, innovation is to be encouraged and promoted rather than raw fact accumulation.

 has proved to be more accurate and faster.
Hence
Linking Words
, the raw data accumulation is becoming an old requirement.
