improve the quality of education

How to improve the quality of education is not only an important problem for students, but also for university itself. To achieve it, some people hold the opinion that universities should spend more money on salaries for university professors. As far as I am concerned, this is not the best method to improve the quality of education.

To begin with, I have to admit that professors deserve to get larger salaries, because we all know how crucial and hard their work is. Furthermore, it can encourage them to do further research through raising their salaries. However, referring back to improving the quality of educaiton,I doubt that this could be useful.

What must be prioritized is that good professors are maybe not good teachers. When I was in university, I met some very talent professors who did very well in their field. I was happy to attend their class at first, but unfortunately, it was not as interesting as I expected. I was not attracted by the courses and they hard to concentrate on, even though the professors illustrate the problem clearly. That's why I think it is not useful to improve the quality of education by raising the salaries of professors. What some professors need is much more experience about teaching, but not just more money.

Another reason I have to mention is that education at university is not only refering to academic knowledge from professors, but also other abilities. Students can join some interest groups to learn what they want, other than requiring courses. Therefore, universities can offer some funding to support students. For instance, offering some oppotunities for those who want to learn foreign language to communicate with foreign students, or support some group activities. I believe that students can learn much from those activites.These vital parts of education should not be ignored.

To sum up, the most proper method to improve the quality of education is to provide diverse ways to learn what students should learn and what they want to learn, rather than to just spend more money on salaries for professors.
