  • Crisis De La Calidad De La Enseñanza Superior Problemas Y Desafíos Ante La Incertidumbre
    EDUCACIÓN SUPERIOR y SOCIEDAD VOL 10 N° 1: 57-66,1999 Crisis de la calidad de la enseñanza superior Problemas y desafíos ante la incertidumbre Miguel Angel Escotet Florida International University Resumen Este artículo tiene por objeto realizar un análisis de los problemas confrontados por la educación en su esfuerzo por mantener la calidad y los retos que se plantean en ese aspecto en una época de incertidumbre. El primer gran desafío afecta a la propia cultura universitaria, a esa relación profesor-estudiante que forma parte de la cultura genuina de la educación: aprender a generar y compartir el conocimiento. En este sentido, se enfatiza la necesidad de lograr constituir una comunidad de aprendizaje que integre a todos los actores universitarios, lo cual requerirá de un cambio de actitudes y valores que imperan en la cultura universitaria de hoy. El otro gran desafío para el logro de la calidad integral reside en la creación de una relación estable entre universidad y sociedad. El sistema universitario no tiene muchas alianzas estratégicas con el sistema productivo que permita la creación de un espíritu de compromiso y colaboración entre ambos sistemas y se destaca la necesidad de consolidar ese conjunto de alianzas. Se concluye señalando que la gran transformación profesional exigirá un mayor nivel interdisciplinario, una revitalización del grupo de disciplinas relacionadas con las esferas éticas y estéticas y un cambio total de actitud en profesores y estudiantes al pasar de una educación terminal a una educación permanente: es decir, el profesional del futuro estará atrapado de por vida en la educación, y educación y trabajo irán de la mano y no una a expensas de la otra.

  • Pandemics, Leadership, and Social Ethics
    Pandemics, leadership, and social ethics Miguel Ángel Escotet PROSPECTS Comparative Journal ISSN 0033-1538 Prospects DOI 10.1007/s11125-020-09472-3 1 23 Prospects https://doi.org/10.1007/s11125-020-09472-3 VIEWPOINTS/CONTROVERSIES Pandemics, leadership, and social ethics Miguel Ángel Escotet1 © UNESCO IBE 2020 Abstract This Viewpoint argues that the absence of worldwide social ethics is at the root of our present social, political, and economic crises. More to the point, the current COVID- 19 pandemic is, in part, a consequence of insufcient scientifc research, inappropriate edu- cation systems, and globally fragile health structures and human services. Keywords Pandemic · Leadership · Social ethics · Education · Crisis The COVID-19 pandemic we are facing is, in part, a consequence of insufcient scientifc research, inappropriate education systems, and globally fragile health structures and human services. But we invest much more in maintaining political structures and political move- ments than in any of those areas. As education professionals, we know that we live in a world in turmoil: a world of col- lapsing ideas, instant gratifcation, unfulflled promises, and crashed ideologies. We experi- ence the forces of change invading our classrooms every day, even as the voices of discon- tent demand radical reform of all levels of public education, including higher education. At the same time, we must confront a new dark age in political and social leadership. Gloucester’s disturbing words in King Lear are ftting: “Tis the time’s plague when mad- men lead the blind” (Shakespeare 2015). With some exceptions, many local, national, and global leaders display a surprising disregard for culture and an appalling absence of afec- tive and emotional development.
