Abstract

BARRANTES MONTERO, Luis Guillermo. Another University is Possible. Educare [online]. 2013, vol.17, n.3, pp.7-20. ISSN 1409-4258.

This paper proposes  a way to be a University and to work as a University based on a new paradigm  that responds  to the demands of the 21st century society. After a brief overview of the traditional  university models  -as a way to illustrate, diachronically, the  state  of the  situation  of universities up to the currently prevailing model- a paradigm that is still in process is proposed:  the transition from uni-versity to multi-diversity, through  the integration of knowledge, development of critical thinking, and democratization of knowledge in order to reach common good

Keywords : University; paradigm; knowledge; higher education.
