Theory refers to the contemplation or speculation in oppose to any form of action.
Often contradicted with practice,theory always has been a knowledge base for practice. Conceptual way to study always has involved theory which has always been a method long followed since long past. Always there has been a contrast between conceptual method & methodical approach towards study, where methodical approach generally relates anything to do with practise.
It always has failed to make understand that theory & practice go side by side & none can solely be the true approach towards study. Theory applied to practice leads to these thoughts:
- Theory towards practice is a cognitive method. It leads to hypothesis & testing ideas. It is always questioning something. It is practice that puts these hypothesis & ideas to test. Practice proves the theory.
- Theory acts likes a manifesto. Theory is the starting point/source of any practice. It is a base of ideas for practice.
- It proceeds towards development & contribution to the society, theory i.e.
- Theory is a continuum – Never fixed. Keeps on growing based on the results of the practice.
- Theory defines the codes & conventions for the society to base its actions upon.
- Theory increases the knowledge base whereas practice helps gainsexperience. Knowledge & experience – 2 most important things for a person’s success.
- Theory acts as a measure to define if something is good/bad.
- Practice can a synecdoche for theory & vice-versa.
