ABSTRACT
Setting up the chief teacher to be fully responsible for the medical course teaching is an explorative idea.It is necessary for the construction of medical teachers,integration of medicine courses and capacity building of young teachers.A qualified chief teacher should be a professional teacher with enough academic prestige and some management experience.Chief teachers will play important roles in the overall course teaching process,including organizing the teaching team,developing the objectives,plans,guidelines of the course and supervising the execution teaching program.The author also propose that the chief teacher responsibility system should be put into the medical course teaching practice which will improve the course teaching quality and make contributions to training excellent medical personnel.
