According to a report released by Institute of Education Tsinghua University, Chinese colleges and universities lag far behind in the fields of academic challenge, cooperative learning initiative, student-teacher interaction, and so on, when compared to U.S. research universities, China Youth Daily reported.

The survey collected over 20,000 samples from 23 undergraduate institutes in China. Based on these data, three quarters of Chinese students have never discussed scores or assignments with their lecturers (whereas in same-level U.S. institutions, this applies to about 7% of students); half of the Chinese students have never talked about their career plans and thoughts with their teachers (the rate in same-level U.S. institutions is about 21%); 35.6% of the students have never got timely feedback on their academic performance from teachers (in same-level U.S. institutions, this rate is about 7%).

The report puts forward that the traditional concept of a teacher's authority exerts much influence on the interaction between teachers and students.

The survey also shows that when asked about "whether they put forward questions or participate in discussions in class", more than one fifth of Chinese students answered with "never" (in same-level U.S. institutions, this goes for only 3% of students), only one tenth of Chinese students chose to answer with "often" or "very often" (in same-level U.S. institutions, this rate is about 63%).

據(jù)《中國青年報(bào)》報(bào)道，清華大學(xué)教育研究院發(fā)布報(bào)告稱，同美國研究型大學(xué)相比，我國高校在學(xué)業(yè)挑戰(zhàn)度、主動合作學(xué)習(xí)水平和師生互動等方面，均存在較大差距。

該課題從全國23所本科院校收集兩萬多份調(diào)查樣本，數(shù)據(jù)顯示，有四分之三的中國學(xué)生從未和任課老師討論分?jǐn)?shù)和作業(yè)（美國同類院校約7%）；有一半的學(xué)生從未與老師討論自己的職業(yè)計(jì)劃和想法（美國同類院校約21%）；有35.6%的學(xué)生的學(xué)習(xí)表現(xiàn)從未得到老師及時(shí)的反饋（美國同類院校約7%）。

報(bào)告分析稱，傳統(tǒng)的師道尊嚴(yán)觀念使教師高高在上，影響到師生互動。

調(diào)查數(shù)據(jù)還表明，我國高校在“課上提問或參與討論”題項(xiàng)上，有超過五分之一的學(xué)生選擇“從未”（美國同類院校只有3%），只有十分之一的學(xué)生選擇“經(jīng)?！被颉昂芙?jīng)?！保绹愒盒＜s63%）。
