Student Management Teams [State of the Art]

Discusses the concept of student management teams. These are described as groups of students who become partners in many aspects of course teaching. They act as advisors, spokespersons, and intermediaries who provide a valuable service in improving course structure, presentation of course material, and even the pace of the course. The idea for student management teams arises from manufacturing quality circles, where workers are able to contribute to improvements in product efficiency, fabrication, and quality processes. Teachers can often use some assistance with their instruction skills or with the way they deliver information in courses they teach.
