|
|
Abstract In the initial stage of the Republic of China , the university academic profession was divided into the full-time teacher and the part-time teacher according to the teaching work load by the government .It was popular that the universities employed part-time teachers and that full-time teachers in a university held concurrent teaching jobs in other academic institutions . There was no obvious differences between full-time teachers and part-time teachers . This phenomenon was criticized by both international and domesticscholars .The universities and the government began tolimit part-time teacher employment . The academic circle paid great attention to constructing a boundary between the government position and the academic occupation . They limited a full-time faculty at a university from holding a concurrent government position .The universities restrained their full-time teachersfrom going out to hold concurrent teaching jobs while the government limited the universities from employing too many part-time teachers . In the later period of the Republic of China , full-time faculty positions increased gradually in the university academic profession . This course reflected that the universities shifted their attention on instructive efficiency to academic quality .
