Chinese universities and American universities are different in many ways. First, Chinese students enroll in fewer courses each term than American students do. Second, unlike American students, Chinese students seldom live outside the campus. Instead, they live on the campus of the university. Third, most courses in Chinese universities are given by professors who lecture to their classes. In contrast, American professors often ask their students questions or allow them to form discussion groups. Fourth, Chinese professors ask students to write fewer papers than American professors do.
