Nowadays, most people learn academic study at university, but others think we should encourage them to learn vocational skills more. Do you agree or disagree?

There is an upsurge in practical

-based. The idea that students should apply theory into practice or focus on practice only has become widely accepted. To my way of thinking, schooling should be designed to prepare children for real life, rather than underlining (emphasizing) the academic aspect only. There can be little doubt that the main purpose of providing

is particularly true when many well-paid jobs consider intense use of technical skills as a prerequisite. Aside from theoretical

knowledge

, universities should assume the responsibility to enhance, diversify and consolidate the skills students can possibly use in many life situations. Life skills refer to a wide range of skills essential for successful living, including recognising other people’s feelings, setting realistic and attainable goals and employing problem-solving strategies. The

university

can devise its curriculum to achieve these outcomes.

For example

, by organising sports and other physical activities, the

university

can help students enhance their team-building and leadership skills. Meanwhile, team assessments can be designed to facilitate students’ group discussion and improve information-sharing skills, enabling students to put their potential to the maximum and to apply the
