There is no need for more positions, but there is need for better teacher competences for each position. We are deriving someone's teacher position from his/her scientific work, not from his/her competences in teaching. Teaching doesn't require the same competences as research, that's why we differ Research Methodology from Teaching Methodology.

No, I think that's enough. For the professor, further achievements are his students. The success of the students is the best achievement of the professor.

Thank you very much Dr Viola for sharing your important views.

I do not think there is a need for higher levels of the professor. It depends on the experience and the extent of the tender offered by the teaching to serve the scientific process and the students of science ...

Thanks a lot Dr Maya for sharing your valuable response.

Thank you very much Dr Dijana for your important views.

I do not think there is a need for a higher position than the ones already mentioned or known

I dont think theres the need for that.

As per this present state of education system and it's development as far as my knowledge is concerned I don't think we need more higher designation beyond Professor,in Higher Education. We just need to raise the commitment and competency of the teaching and administrative process. Changing names and promotion is not mandatory at all cases least we see the need for it. All teachers are to target their effective teaching and well manage administration in their profession. In short we need quality teachers for quality education and designation is just the power added to the teachers to commit more. So Highering of designation is not so much necessary in this case till we see the need of empowering more if this empowerment is literally not necessary and if it is just for name fame. We can aim for higher only when we could manage well the present resources otherwise it may even cause confusion and inflation.

Thank you very much Dr Lamia for sharing your valuable contribution.

Thanks a lot Dr Reuben for sharing your valuable views.

Thank you very much Dr Teresa for sharing your valuable contribution.

I don't think there is a need for that.

there is no need for more positions. What is needed is continues study by the all educators so that whatever they pass on to the students is relevant.

Thanks a lot Dr Rita and Dr Thomas for sharing your valuable opinion.

There is no need for more positions, but when Professor and his work is valued, his/her satisfaction and productivity rises, and he/she is motivated to maintain or improve the good work. Praise and recognition play important role. Professor want respect and valued by others for his/her contribution.

I think research interest and guidance is more important than asking for position..

Somebody can work excellent irrespective of any position.

Higher positions are always there like Directors, Head etc. etc. but they are not able to perform teaching duties as they are having several other matters to do. But they can plan some motivation lectures for students.

Follow.

Teaching is love and love knows no classificatory criteria. Nyably, a teacher's main duty, at least to me, is a constant grit towards professional development.

Thanks a lot Dr Barbara. Dr Samir, Dr Ajit Roy, Dr Prabhjot, Dr Laura and Dr Reza for sharing your valuable contribution and making important points.

Recombination for better work is sufficient for teacher. No need of higher positions.

My feeling is that teaching positions at top universities are very competitive and, of course, they are based on research merits, which is good. However, one frequent complaint of many university students is that during lectures they do not get much of the teaching content because some professors lack the talent and adequate training for teaching. My belief is that a good teaching is fundamental for the future professional development and success at the work place of students who pay expensive tuition fees for an education which is expected to be of very high quality taking into account both research and teaching.

Thanks a lot Dr Shanti and Dr Carlos for sharing your valuable views.

Ashok Pundir You mean Academician in higher position for motivation and best results, perhaps.

Hello

In my opinion motivation and new positions does not help

In order to motivated we do not need more positions, maybe to sort the time

no i think professor is enough if he can help us with our assignments no other teaching levels are needed

Teaching ability is needed if you really want to help efficiently your students, otherwise is just half help. On the other hand, help with your assignments can be found at any time everywhere online.

I agree with many of the responses thus far....I do not think that adding additional titles after "professor" is necessary, however, regardless of the size of the institution of higher learning, recognizing the additional achievements completed by the faculty member goes a long way!! I have one year completed teaching at a small private 4-year university and I appreciate feedback (positive or negative) that will improve my teaching skills. I will begin my dissertation in a couple of weeks and I am sure I will have more of an appreciation of both research and teaching that I can include in my teaching experience. I went into this profession because I truly enjoy working with college age students and believe I can make a difference in the student's outcome as they persist in their educational journey. Thank you.

Actually to get job as a professor is really big achievement. Definitely at this one has secured ample amount of knowledge and experience. So everyone at this stage utilized its best to design the students this is more important and ultimately its big satisfaction for everyone.

Thanks a lot Dr Rusudan, Dr Ingrid, Dr Sonto, Dr Carlos, Dr John, Dr Ajit Roy and Dr Prashant for your important and valuable contribution.

Some universities have one step beyond full professor. They call that position, Distinguished Professor. Some places it pays a little more, others it is just for bragging rights. As for me, I'm happy to be a full, tenured professor.

Thank you very much Dr Joshua and Dr Gregg for your valuable views.

No.. I think its no need to add up to the already existing rank

The indicated hierarchy of degrees is quite sufficient, especially since to achieve each of them requires a lot of time and a certain amount of scientific work. I think that the biggest leap in the hierarchy should be between the position of assistant professor and professor - if an assistant professor works to become a competent and good teacher in a separate lecture course, then the professor should be able to integrate information between different courses and show natural and logical connections between them. If we talk about the scientific title "professor", I think that it should be divided into professor and full professor. The first has a PhD degree, and the second has a D.Sc. Such differentiation shows that a person equally has the qualities of both a teacher and a scientist.

It is a way of creating more hurdles which does not translate to any improved value. There are better ways of encouragement in teaching services.
