支持和维持积极的教育变革是高等教育日益关注的一个领域，也是一个持续的挑战。利用学生伙伴关系是一个有希望的方式来帮助促进这些急需的变化。本案例研究的重点是部门行动小组（DAT），这是教师，学生和工作人员在同一部门一起工作，使本科教育的可持续发展的群体。在这里，我们专注于DAT从四个不同的部门，在美国的两个研究密集型大学，提请注意的重要作用，学生在这些群体中扮演的变革推动者。我们还反思了建立伙伴关系的固有挑战，这种伙伴关系包括有意义的权力分享，以实现教育变革
Supporting and sustaining positive educational change is an area of increasing focus in higher education and remains a persistent challenge. Using student partnerships is one promising way to help promote these much-needed changes. This case study focuses on Departmental Action Teams (DATs), which are groups of faculty, students, and staff working together in the same department to make sustainable improvements to undergraduate education. Here we focus on DATs from four different departments, across two research-intensive universities in the USA, to draw attention to the important roles that students play as change agents in these groups. We also reflect upon the inherent challenges in building partnerships that incorporate meaningful power sharing to effect educational change
