2月11日 110115NA Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? The main role of the university professor is to educate students rather than to do research.
As Confucius, the greatest educator in China, once said, university is a place where creative ideas meet with the opportunity for them to become real. And professors play an important role in this process. In my opinion, university professors should pay more attention to their study, rather than keeping them busy around students.
Unlike high schools, where basic knowledge is of the most value for students, university is born with the responsibility to find new discoveries and act as an impetus to the development of society. Therefore, the core of a university lies in its labs and researching departments, rather than classrooms. Professors are the most important resources in university, and their efforts should be placed on the essential job - researching. Of course, professors should take their job as teacher seriously, and do their best to educate students, but their main focus on research work should never be changed. From the journal of Experimental Education, a university in Germany involves its students in the research work as a mean for education, which I think is a good way to keep professors occupied with their research and finish their education work at the same time.
On the other hand, from the aspect of students, many of them have already been adults and have got the ability to study independently. With the brief instruction of the professor, even if it is just a hint, they should be able to finish the work on their own, and it is of great possibility that they can do it better in a brand new way. What's more, the lack of help from professors has nothing to do with irresponsibility; in fact, it is a must for developing independent thinking ability in students, which is one of the critical abilities that university students must obtain before graduation. Only in this way could university accomplish its duty to educate students for a better future.
In brief, it is not only the commission of university, but also the need of students, that require professors to pay more attention to their research, rather than class. |
