This book explains what Students' Quality Circles (SQC) are, how they
function, key constraints and issues in implementation, and possible
solutions to make it a valuable co-curricular activity. It showcases how
Quality Control Circle (QCC) is reengineered with the sole purpose of
prosocial personality development of students at their early age. It is
a research outcome which depicts the direction of the education system
toward character building rather than only developing knowledge and
skills. The logical sequence of presentation of the book is 'why, '
'what, ' and toward the end, 'how' SQC in education. The book satisfies
four hierarchical levels of readers. The first level is of educationists
and national policy makers who may take up SQC as an important approach
of the education system in their country for prosocial personality
development of students and thereby targeting to produce quality
citizens in the future. At the second level are chief executives or
managers of educational institutes who may identify the potential of SQC
approach for developing the positive personality of their students.
Teachers and SQC facilitators are at the third level, and they can use
the book to train and educate their students while initiating and
promoting SQC activities at their institutes. And finally, at the fourth
level obviously are students who may refer to this book from time to
time and practice SQC on their own for self-development and empowerment.
