“The way that most research universities across North America teach science to undergraduates is worse than ineffective,it’s unscientific.”

——2001年诺贝尔物理学奖获得者Carl Wieman

“与美国大学相比，中国的大学在因人施教、体现对学生个性化的尊重方面仍有欠缺；我们的教学理念和教学方法还比较落后，弱化了我们的教学效果。国外大学比较注意教育理念、教学方式和方法，能够有意识地培养学生的兴趣、调动学生学习的积极性，注重教学效果的检测和评价，教学层次和效果明显较高。”

——张树永，王玉枝，苑世领.大学化学，2014，29（2）：14-19

如果他们说的没错，相信你懂的.................我们究竟该做些什么呢？让化学教学有地位，让化学教育研究者有地位，支持《化学教育》期刊！我们该思考到底什么是大学的根本，我们所提供的教学对于未来化学家来说是足够的吗？

In the past, chemistry undergraduate teaching was primarily carried out by the academic staff, alongside their research activities. But several universities are now taking a different approach and employing teaching fellows to develop and deliver their chemistry courses. As well as reducing the teaching burden on academics, these positions offer an alternative career path for PhD chemists who want to focus on
education.
