Both are important in their own way.While it is possible to teach new ways of doing research, it is also very possible to research new ways of teaching. research is seeking new knowledge while teaching is imparting new knowledge.

Both are important and interal part of the system.

Edward Kahiga Gopal Shukla Thanking you sirs for taking part of discussion.

Both are important it is a part of the Education system.

Both are connected

Both are important in fulfilling the mission of the university. However, when it comes to promotion, greater weight is given to research than to teaching.

Most academic faculty members are researchers, and they hold either a Ph.D. or Master’s degree.

In residency programme in our post graduate medical university, research is a part of the ciriculum for the students. Besides teaching and research, the teachers in clinical subjects are involved in patients care, both inside and outside of the University. So the bulk majority of the research done in clinical subjects are related to students thesis papers, which as a matter of fact is a part of Whole teaching. .

So the teaching is dominant and important than research in clinical subjects of our university. And I am not an exception.

Good information thanks a lot

Both are important as it is part of university objectives

Both are intricately linked and at the tertiary level, necessary. Teaching is under girded by research and you must be part of the equation especially in your area of expertise. There is nothing quite exciting like exploring novel research that can inform practice.

Good question , both I think are important.

Athraa Kitab Adita Maharaj Rajlakshmi Kanjilal

Both are important

both are important. It is unfair to pick one of them.

Your research should enhance your teaching, as you are bringing cutting edge knowledge to the classroom. At my university, both are required for promotion and tenure.

Good question, I think both are important

I agree with Halmat Faieeq D Mahmood that both, research and teaching, are important. I also agree with Adita Maharaj and Abdullah Sikar Al-Issawi that research and teaching are clearly connected. When applying reseach-teaching nexus, doing research is giving new insights for teaching, and teaching is giving new insights for research,

sure, both are equally important Uma Nath Shukla

Thank you Raimo Kaasila

Uma Nath Shukla, if you design your courses for both teaching and research, they may serve the same purpose. I develop my courses for both purposes and at the final stage, I assess the whole elements of my plan. This fosters our (my students and me) reflective thinking abilities.

Teaching is a talent , not all researcher are good talented teachers , teacher if he is competent can transfer the knowledge that he obtained through his own research, as well he can transfer thoughts and ideas from other researche. I strongly believe that is a researcher should improve his teaching skills if he needs to teach .

@Hadeel Albarrak thanks for your answer.

Teaching is communicating what we have to younger generation. Research is exploring, searching out, and creating new knowledge for development.

So both are essential.. and unavoidable.

Both are important

Both research and teaching are important in University/college. They are related with each other. By teaching the theory or concept of any field, we can get the knowledge or insightful thought in order to conduct the research that we want to do.

Zin Myo Swe S J Malik Abdul Hei Edward Kahiga Anjna Devi Adita Maharaj Thank you all for participating in the discussion, obviously both are important for shaping of students. Regards

Ali A. Al-Homaidan thank you sir for valuable word.

Both are depends upon each other

Gopal Shukla Thank you sir for your words. Regards

Both are important. Teaching can be very rewarding but you need to spend time and energy on it. Nobody forgets a good teacher!

I think for the University Professors, research is more important than teaching. They should emphasis to create knowledge than distribution.

Tarik Hossain Neda Ravankhah

Both are important. It is even more important if you can base your teaching on your research, these two areas will complement each other.

Both is important .

The best is how to make them enhancing each other.

Very true Imad Noah Ahmed

dear Uma Nath Shukla Getting already good replies on "Which one is more Important Research or Teaching or both", and i think both are interconnected and both are necessary.

I believe that both are intertwined, they help teachers to improve their knowledge and get experience about the continuous changes in the world.

On top of that, they both serve humanity

There is no doubt both are important.

First, we study about the concepts and principles of any of the scientific know-how by the means of teaching...it's four wall system as it comes under formal education...

Then we test or study those principles and applications on field or grass root level so as to get answer of a problem by conducting trial or experiments in question...it is informal eduction, we can say...then will find extension that is any kind of eduction which is usually stretched out in the rural area beyond of the limits of educational institution or formal eduction, called non formal education..means that research finding which show social benefits, may be recommended to ensure happiness among the people...

Both are important

Both are important

Of course, both are important

both are important but what makes research special is the fact that it leads to a better comprehension and thus it turns to be a special way of teaching

both

Both are very important. It is well known inside the major research-led universities but perhaps less well known outside, that the status of research is higher than that of teaching. In most universities like Cambridge, academic appointment, tenure, promotion and general reputation are dominated by research output. It is quite possible to have a glittering career in which you produce lots of prestigious research but are a not-so-good teacher. However, both teaching and research are important https://www.simontaylorsblog.com/2012/03/14/teaching-versus-research/

Research is teaching preparation. Effective teaching requires lecturers to stay on top of their research. https://www.timeshighereducation.com/blog/research-teaching-preparation

Both are important, however research may have an upper hand to teaching. A teacher needs research in order for him or her to teach a particular subject matter

Teaching is the transfer / enablement of knowledge taking students to the next level in academics. This maintains and improves the pool of human resources required.

Research involves analysis with scientific temper, leading to newer developments, change of practice, etc. This is essential for progress and better outcome.

Depending on the context, both play important roles. Fundamentally both rely on a sound understanding of basic principles. Hence, the importance / relevance is based on the individual and the setting.

It depends on your job description. If you are lecturer you can do both. If you are a researcher in a certain institution, you might not have the opportunity to teach. Also when you are a teacher you might miss the funds for research and not be able to research.

Yes, of course, both are important but research is very much essential for the progress of humanity as well as country

Both are important. Research will enhance our practical teaching abilities so that students can easily grab the contents. They can frame new experiments according to their own views. We can learn more learning by doing. @ uma nath Shukla

Both id important

Both areas of activity of university research and teaching staff are important and can complement each other, etc. The results of conducted research may be used in the framework of conducted education. On the other hand, students who write their diploma theses can also conduct research.

Greetings,

Dariusz Prokopowicz

both of them

Both are important.From research we find new knowledge.And through teaching we distribute that new knowledge to the students

The heart and soul of good writing is research; you should write not what you know but what you can find out about. Robert J. Sawyer

Academic success depends on research and publications. Philip Zimbardo

Both are important

Both.

Definitely, both are of great importance

both is important

Both are important

High quality of teaching needs research. So, both teaching and research are couple of education quality improvement that can't be separated.

Both teaching and research are essential for growth and development of knowledge but teaching should preferred over resesrch if student - teacher ratio is poor.

Teaching: learning to know, to know how to do, to make known. Education: learning to know how to be.

Louis Pauwels

There can't be a quality teaching without the support of a research.
