Abstract

The modern tutorial system is the teaching basis in the University of Oxford,which relies on the colleges,mainly as undergraduate teaching,and taking individual teaching as the main feature.It also gives our universities’ undergraduate tutorial system some revelations:Firstly,we must enrich the practice form of undergraduate tutorial system.Secondly,we must face up to the constraints of implementing undergraduate tutorial system effectively,such as the system factors,teacher-student ratio,economic factors,the relationship between other systems and the tutorial system,etc.Thirdly,we need deal with the conflicts between the elite education and mass education.Fourthly,we need to establish a scientific teaching evaluation and supervision mechanisms.Fifthly,we must keep learning and innovation so as to construct undergraduate tutorial system with Chinese characteristics.
