There are aspects of knowledge where we cannot learn in a formal education, such as school and textbooks. - Auguste Comte expressed the three principal doctrines of positivism: empirical science was the only source of positive knowledge of the world; and intention to cleanse men’s minds of mysticism, superstition, and other forms of pseudokowledge; and to make technology primarily political and moral. In technical rationality perspective, professional practice is a process of problem solving. Problem solving must be broken down before it is solved in the real world. This is where practical knowledge takes place, reflecting in knowing, improve and redirect one's position while solving an unique problem. There is also reflecting in action, such as a performing jazz musician whom is composing on the spot. Therefore, knowing in practice allows one to become a natural researcher in the practice context, where new theories are drawn based on reflections of experience.

Semiotics: A Primer for Designers
By Challis Hodge
Semiotics: the study of sings that represents anything, it is derived from Greek: semeton, sign. It originated from a Swiss linguist Ferdinand de Saussure suggests that it is the existence of general science of signs, which can be applied to any system. Voloshinov observed that the sign is not in relation to other signs but rather in social context of its use.
