Keywords:
student demonstrator, student demonstrator system, university teaching, quality of higher educationAbstract
The paper focuses on the introduction of a student demonstrator system or demonstration into the educational process in higher education. It presents basic starting points for this type of work, the main tasks and forms of cooperation as well to the challenges, advantages and disadvantages of such a system. The results of the study among student demonstrators on the satisfaction and experience with the system of student demonstrators in the educational process at the University of Maribor, Faculty of Organizational Sciences are analysed in more detail. According to the research findings, the demonstrators represent a welcome novelty in university teaching, which brings many tangible advantages both for demonstrators as active co-creators of university teaching and for the students involved in the educational process. Among the beneficial and positive effects for the student demonstrators are the acquisition of new and the deepening of already acquired knowledge, a more
positive learning environment, a fruitful cooperation with the teacher and the students, and the acquisition of new skills and experiences. The paper concludes with some views on the future development of the demonstrator system, ideas for the work of future student demonstrators and suggestions for improving the student demonstrator system.
