Dear all, From the discussion it transpires that as academicians there is a very narrow perspective which has been attached to the term "education" and "higher education". One should appreciate that the term "education" and "higher education" has a wider connotation in terms of "enhancing understanding, skills and its applications" to derive the desired results. While some of us have been educated through formal education, seen by everyone in the form of degrees, some of them have their "education" through hard work, trial and error method, so and so forth. So those of us who are overly obsessed with degrees, tend to look down upon those who do not possess these degrees, like how the rich scorn at the middle and lower class. However, it is worthy of appreciation, that those who do not have had the fortune of formal education, still have learnt and proved themselves. But that has not precluded them from continuing their learning, and many of them have pursued formal education to map theory to practice. So to sum it up in a process flow context Formal education ----- theory ---- experiment ----- learn ------ become wise. Experiment ----- learn ---partially wise ------ formal education ------- theory ------- become wise. Which ever way we look at, the ingredients - formal education, theory, experiment, learn are essential to complete the cycle.
