Is traditional education good?

Traditional education has some pros and cons.

Traditional teaching methods are designed to be based on a model in which the teacher usually teaches through lectures and then imparts skills on a blackboard or projector. When the teacher is done with the class, students are given practice assignments, usually from standardized textbooks or handouts as well.
