Everything about brain and education

  Why is knowledge learned at universities useless at work for some people?   Some people say that they had to relearn everything when they get a job. Universities are supposed to provide most recent knowledge. But still many people have to relearn new knowledge.   Why is this happening?   The reason is that universities can only provide knowledge which is theories that have been proven.    If unproven, it cannot be knowledge and university cannot teach.   For example, when a company released a smartphone, it is proven to be working as smartphone which is knowledge.   University can teach the knowledge about the smartphone that is released (theorized).   If anything under development, university cannot teach because it is not proven to be working yet.    Companies strive by developing newer version.    However, students only learned proven knowledge that is the past.   And they rarely learn how to develop a new smartp...
