Importance of technical education


Importance of technical education
What motivates Technical People?
Technical education is the education with training in practical arts and science. However, general education gives us general knowledge of arts and science. It is sure that education is the backbone of a nation but no nation can work properly without technically educated people. Therefore, importance should be given on technical education.
General education is not so useful at present. People have realized this. In the past people would give high importance on general education. In the world of modern science and technology, people felt the necessity of technical hands for earning their livelihood. To win this struggle for existence technical skills are essential. Technical education gives people skills and competence to earn their bread in an honest and honorable way.
The prosperity of a country depends on her industry. Some countries have remained poor in spite of natural resources because they cannot utilize them for want of technical knowledge. Bangladesh is an example of such countries in the world the most prosperous countries are those that have advanced in technical education. Russia, the USA, Great Britain and Germany are the good examples of such countries. In these countries, most of people are technically skilled.
After our independence in 1971, our government realized the necessity of some persons with technical skills. It is felt that the country cannot be developed without industrialization. Industrial development requires many properly trained persons. Therefore, technical institutions have been set up in our countries to train up the people particularly the young generation recently technical education has the priority. Therefore, it has advanced largely. At present the technical education, produce a large number of trained persons every year. It is encouraging that our government and all classes of people are very much conscious of the importance of technical education. They have understood that technical education cannot be successful on practical training. Therefore, theoretical knowledge should be coordinated with practical experience in firms and factories.
However, some more effective steps should be taken to encourage technical education in the present world of competition.

A Greedy Dog and a Piece of Meat

 Once a dog stole a piece of meat from a butcher's shop. He was very glad to have it and thought of a heavy meal at home. He was greedy. On the way there was a small river. Over the river there was a bridge. The river was full to the brim. While the dog  was passing the bridge he saw his own shadow into the water. But he thought it was another dog. The shadow dog also had a piece of meat that was his own meat. But the dog was unable to understand the matter. To have that  piece of meat the dog barked and jumped  into the river. As he opened his mouth his own meat dropped into the water. He tried his best to have his own but in vain. The dog was foolish. So, he lost not only his meat but also his life. The teaching of the story is 'grasp all lost all'.
