A subdomain is the section of the web address that is before a domain and you've quite possibly seen a lot of subdomains while browsing the Internet. For instance, many sites such as Wikipedia have versions a number of languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org etc. The main benefit of using a subdomain is that it can have an independent site and its own records, so you are able to even host it on a different server. The practical use is that you could have a supplementary site, like an e-learning portal for college students in addition to the main school website. If you use subdomains as opposed to subfolders, it'll be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a certain site, not mentioning that it will be more safe to have the websites separate from one another.
