Hi, Beg to disagree. By having a practical goal, one can learn how to do

Many times reaching a goal is the ultimate aim. Once the goal is met, the tools and the path taken may seem irrelevant. At that moment, learning ceases to happen. If I have a good enough internet connection, i can google up or look up stackoverflow for references to solve the problem at hand. Learning does not happen! Very few are actually inspired to go beyond the problem they just solved. Ok. I did not attempt to prove a point or disagree with you or others in the thread. Its just a thought I felt a need to share!
