Abstract:The imbalance between university teaching and research has aroused much concern of the whole society. The rise of research is the result of the development of society and change in social requirements. However, despite the rapid progress in research, university education is gradually losing its way in the era of popularization of higher education, passively dragging behind social practice. Undergraduate teaching has been blamed for many years, and the fall of undergraduate teaching is doubtlessly related to the obsolete knowledge, unreasonable course scheme, rigid teaching mode, and low quality of teaching staff. Reestablishment of the balance between research and teaching should be achieved not by lowering the status of research but by transformation of undergraduate teaching itself. Teaching staff of universities shall have the courage to undertake the responsibility of teaching transformation in research and in practice, be selfmotivated and continuously improve themselves, to win instead of to beg for respect for undergraduate teaching.
