Knowledge-based learning broadly emphasizes practical knowledge-based teaching as it creates a strong foundation for future learning. It provides a stock full of valuable facts and a set of flexible skills.
An educated and knowledgeable person can make
intelligent decisions to overcome a complex problem based on his day-to-day
understanding. Knowledge is superior to muscle power. Power is the ability to
act and function effectively.
Earlier, man used to lead a nomadic life at the
mercy of nature. He wandered in search of food and shelter and protected
himself from wild animals and other dangers. Soon man started observing the
nature and events happening around him and started gaining knowledge. He
discovered fire and its uses. They also began making tools for hunting purposes
and developed their hunting skills.
Today man has developed limits. He uses his
knowledge to dominate others. With knowledge, man has attained all the pastimes
and comforts in life. Knowledge gave him strength physically. Man has now
educated and cultivated himself.
He has made significant progress in the field of
science and technology. He is the most powerful creature on earth and dominates
nature and other physically less strong species with his mental strength and
ability.
Knowledge is helpful in every aspect of life. The more knowledge we have, the more power we have. It is essential for our personal and professional development and motivates us to achieve success in life. It is the unique trait that drives us to lead a good and humble life.
Secondly, knowledge also keeps peace in the society by keeping people away
from the fights and other social evils.
