On Students' Rating of Their Teachers

Recently, it is common in colleges and universities for students to grade teachers. Almost every university has been installed the rating system.

However, this phenomenon has aroused great controversy. Some people are in favor of this rating system. They hold that students are the receivers of the knowledge and teaching activity and they have the right to evaluate teachers' teaching. But other people are against it. They believe that the rating system is partial and will influence the normal teaching order.

As far as I am concerned, students' rating of their teacher is necessary. On the one hand, students can find a more effective way for their study. On the other hand, teachers can be aware of their teaching effectiveness and make some necessary improvement. In a word, it is a good method of benefiting both learning and teaching. (139 words)

论学生给老师打分

最近，大学生给老师打分的现象十分常见。几乎每所大学都设定了评价系统。

然而，这种现象已引起了极大的争议。有些人对这个评价系统表示支持，他们认为学生是教学活动与知识的接受者，他们有权评价教师的教学。而有些人则持相反观点，他们认为评价系统具有局限性，会影响到正常的教学秩序。

我认为，学生对老师的评价十分必要。一方面，学生们能够找到更有效的学习方法。另一方面，老师也能够了解他们的教学成效，并做出一些必要的改进。总而言之，这是一种很好的方法，对于教与学都十分有益。
