YOU MAY WISH TO CONSIDER:

Introducing students to the good work done by their peers.

There are several techniques used by a faculty member in business administration to share the ideas and the special knowledge of individual students to the class as a whole. These include:

  • passing out a list of research topics chosen by the class so that students will know if others are writing papers of interest to them.

  • making available copies of the best papers and essay exams to others in class.

  • providing time in section to have students read the papers or assignments of others in the class.

  • requiring each student to write a critique of another student's paper as one of the written assignments.

  • incorporating into lecture a brief talk by a student who has experience or who is doing a research paper on a relevant topic.
