The whole purpose of getting an education is for students to understand and comprehend enough knowledge for them to be able to earn a living and be a productive member of society.

Sometimes there is a gap between what students know and understand and what they should know and understand.

It is easy for me to have many learning bridges because just about everyone has had at some time of dental experiences.
