Does the quality of instruction, which is greatly responsible for the competence of students when they step into society, need to be advanced? I think the answer is yes. Since the academic world as well as the world is changing at a fast speed, instruction, including the way of teaching and the knowledge to be taught, cannot remain unchanged. Yet, to serve the goal, not all the professors in all fields should spend time working outside the campus because of difference among diverse fields.
Instruction, defined as the process of professor's teaching which includes the way of teaching and what to teach, should be advanced through(不知道能不能这样用也~改成abreast with?) time, since the development of science and technology has provided the professors a wide range of better choice(choices) to present what they what(want) to teach. Many years ago, professors presented their courses mainly by text books, which seems insipid to most students, whereas, thanks to the rapid development in mass media, professors can give students a better view of what they want to teach, especially in fields like history, by presents repertory films. (这句话感觉没说完)When it comes to economy, professors can easily construct a graph concerning the relationship between unemployment and inflation rate by just typing some data into the computer. Moreover, since the academic world is also changing rapidly, knowledge to be taught should also be advanced from time to time. Since the quality can be measured by the way of teaching and knowledge to be taught, it is necessary to advance the quality.(教学质量的提高是很有必要的,教学方法和教学内容两方面都需要提高)
In some fields which focus on practical situations, the quality of instruction can be advanced by requiring professor to working outside the campus, provided that time spent outside is limited. In fields, such as engineering and software, things do not always go as the text book has expected, since problems are common when it comes to practical situation which is hard to imagine according to knowledge learned from text book. For that matter, effective measures to deal with these problems have been developed in commercial companies, for they have to minimize their cost so as to maximize their profits. As a result, it is indispensable for professors, in order to teach students both practical and theoretic knowledge, to spend time working in such companies to catch up with knowledge developed(developed knowledge) in practical situations. Nonetheless, a limit must be cast on time spent, since professors' spending too much time working outside the campus may distract their attention from teaching which may serve to a negative result.
Although there is no doubt that the quality of instruction should be improved, effective methods to achieve the goal differs among different fields. In fields, such as history and literature,which focus on theoretical researches, holding a frequent colloquium, instead of requiring faculty in these fields working outside, is more practical and effective. On the one hand, society outside the campus provides few jobs for professors in these fields, in which case not all professors can find a appropriate vacation(这个词有职位的意思么??). On the other hand, colloquia, which gathers scholar in such fields together, may provide precious opportunities for professors who can hardly meet with each other to discuss and debate, which can facilitate the advent of better theory. And then, professors can teach their students something new, giving(give) students a clear view of new theory in academic fields they work in. Working outside campus may provide practical experience for professors, from which fields that(only) focus on theoretical researches can not benefit. Therefore, better methods to advance the quality of instruction vary when it comes to different fields.
In sum, as the world is changing rapidly, both improvement in technology ,which provides professors a better way to teach, and advancement in academic fields, which requires professor to enlarge what they are to teach, call for development ing(of) the quality of instruction. Requirement that all faculty should work outside campus are effective in some fields, however, not practical when it comes to all the fields, in which case effective ways to achieve the goal varies among diverse fields.
这篇文章写的行云流水,非常不错~语言方面句型和词汇都比较丰富。个人觉得题目的理解可能有点出入,该issue主要是说要通过outside work 来提高教学质量,作者对要不要提高教学质量进行了大量论述,不知道可不可以也~~另外有个小问题就是,少打了很多空格,很多单词都连在一起,看得偶好辛苦,作者有这样好的文字功底因为这种小问题丢分的话很不划算哦~~ |
