CAMPOS RETANA, Roy. Academic freedom and the innovative university. Rev. Actual. Investig. Educ [online]. 2020, vol.20, n.1, pp.479-502. ISSN 1409-4703. http://dx.doi.org/10.15517/aie.v20i1.39935.
This scientific essay addresses the implications of academic freedom and the innovative educative process within universities. Specifically, this article focuses on how academic freedom evolved as a right that higher education institutions use to protect themselves against external ideologies, mainly to avoid governmental influence. It makes a brief approach to freedom history. Later, it explores novel educative transformations based on technology, specifically those impacting teaching like virtual platforms and blended learning. We found that the new educative paradigms are nearly connected to academic freedom, depending on each country's legislation. Drawing from the experiences of Germany, Spain, and Costa Rica, this essay explores how academic freedom can resist government and university to overcome the authority of the professor. Nevertheless, we conclude considering how academic freedom is a relatively capable medium to achieve autonomy.
