of education, students are being taught to learn theoretical knowledge and not the practical skills which are needed to perform tasks at work place. I disagree with the opinion due to several reasons that I will discuss in a greater detail in my essay. In the past, many institutes teaching style was based on theoretical knowledge students after completing the studies had to join internships to gain practical experiences. They had to work hard to cope with the work environment and to gain practical skills.
