New page

'''Knowledge''' is a familiarity, awareness or understanding of someone or something, such as [[Fact|facts]], [[information]], [[Description|descriptions]], or [[Skill|skills]], which is acquired through [[experience]] or [[education]] by [[Perception|perceiving]], [[Discovery|discovering]], or [[learning]].

== Description ==

Knowledge can refer to a theoretical or practical understanding of a subject.

It can be implicit (as with practical skill or expertise) or explicit (as with the theoretical understanding of a subject); it can be more or less formal or systematic.

In [[philosophy]], the study of knowledge is called epistemology; the philosopher Plato famously defined knowledge as "justified true belief", though "well-justified true belief" is more complete as it accounts for the [[Gettier problem|Gettier problems]].

However, several definitions of knowledge and theories to explain it exist.

Knowledge acquisition involves complex cognitive processes: perception, communication, and reasoning; while knowledge is also said to be related to the capacity of acknowledgment in human beings.[2]
