Well I think there are a couple strategies. For example encouraging students to clean-up each others mistakes would be a good one. You could use OWL to monitor edits in an area as well:http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OWL_(OpenStreetMap_Watch_List)
Keep right can be used to look for mistakes as well: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Keep_right Additionally I would suggest making sure students run the validator plugin in JOSM before they upload their data.
