General knowledge can be defined as culturally valued knowledge about any particular topic relating to the social interest of a society, culture, civilization, community or a country, which may be communicated by a range of non-specialist media. In simple words, general knowledge is the knowledge of every aspect of human life, which may or may not be a part of his academic studies. 

There can be various areas identified as different domains of general knowledge like arts, discovery, games, politics, culture, film, medicine, history etc. The modern, developed and industrialized world is running on the wheels of education. We all need education as a torch that leads the holistic way of living.There is a narrow line that runs between learning and education. We learn from everything we come across, from birth to death. On the contrary, we get educated at a certain point in our life with imparted knowledge. Our learning evolves with personal experience, which bears no rules, whereas schools or universities impart education based on particular standards. The standards are clear and measurable goals drawn on skills and knowledge that children must obtain. These skills prepare the children for the future, work, and life.
