As universidades têm se constituído espaços de estratégias de afirmação, interação e representação do protagonismo indígena no Brasil. O acesso de indígenas ao ensino superior tem possibilitado a ampliação de debates relacionados às causas indígenas. Pesquisadores e estudantes de diferentes áreas de conhecimento têm desenvolvido trabalhos no âmbito do Ensino Superior, evidenciando a legitimidade e atualidade dos Movimentos Indígenas nas relações que estabelecem com a Formação Superior. Tais fenômenos etnicossociais, os quais temos denominado de etnogêneses, decorrem de longos processos de emergência, valorização e reconhecimento da diversidade étnica no país. Diante do ingresso cada vez maior de indígenas nas instituições de educação superior no Brasil, consideramos oportuno desenvolver algumas reflexões sobre a questão. Nesse sentido, o objetivo deste texto é rascunhar algumas considerações sobre o acesso de sujeitos indígenas nas universidades como estratégia de interação com a comunidade envolvente, constituindo-se como oportunidade consistente de articulações necessárias ao fortalecimento dos movimentos indígenas. Para tanto, apresentamos algumas questões que nos permitam refletir sobre os desafios enfrentados pelos acadêmicos indígenas na atualidade.Palavras-chave: Protagonismo indígena contemporâneo.

The access of indigenous people to higher education has made possible an expansion of debates related to indigenous causes. Researchers and students from different areas of knowledge have developed works in the context of higher education that evidence a legitimacy and an update of the Indigenous Movements in the relations with the creation of a Superior Formation. Ethnogenesis phenomena come from long processes of emergence, appreciation and recognition of ethnic diversity in the country. Faced with the growing number of indigenous people in higher education institutions, in Brazil, considerate about the problem. Our objective is to point out some considerations for thinking about the access of indigenous subjects to the university as a strategy of interaction with a surrounding community, constituting it as a consistent opportunity of articulations for the strengthening of indigenous movements in Contemporary Brazil. Therefore, we present some questions that allow us to reflect on the challenges faced by indigenous academics.Keywords: Indigenous movements. Higher education.

Development Perspective

Teaching in Higher Education Institutions (HEI) requests training and skills as researching. Unfortunately, on an international level the teaching training programme is not always crystal and clear, or even worse, not requested. Often researchers are asked to provide lectures without receiving proper formation. This approach creates sensible depletion in the educational quality. Offering an overview on how the Dutch HEIs are tackling the problem, the aim of this study is twofold: (i) presenting the University Teaching Qualification (UTQ) from a career development perspective and (ii) giving a qualitative evaluation of the entire process from the point of view of UTQ supervisors and lecturers. Finally concluding the relevance of such a professionalization programme.

This paper gives an overview of a study conducted at the University of Winchester to explore students’ ‘sense of belonging’ at one particular UK institution. The project was completed in two phases: first, an investigation via a ‘Feedback Forum’ of the different stages and factors contributing to a ‘sense of belonging’ and the points in time during the student journey where this was achieved. Second, this initial data was coded to provide a series of categories which informed the creation of an institution-wide survey to investigate further which types of engagement led to a ’sense of belonging’, and to what extent, for each category identified. This research was influenced by the national policy and market economy within current UK Higher Education (HE), with a focus on retention and student satisfaction, which has, in turn, been linked to belonging (Thomas, 2012; Morgan, 2003). The study was undertaken, and the paper authored, through a student-staff partnership within the Winchester Student Fellows Scheme (described by Sims et al, 2014).

The Impact

Entrepreneurship is recognized as an engine for the economy. However, Latin America must promote higher opportunities for the creation of new businesses, especially for technology-based ventures. In this sense, the Center for Global Innovation and Entrepreneurship (CGIE) of the University of Texas at Austin offers a Master of Science in Technology Commercialization (MCCT) that prepares students with methodologies to promote the creation of new businesses in Mexico. This study aims to know the contribution of training to the creation of new companies, and its role in the innovation and the technology transfer processes, from the viewpoint of the participants. This research presents a case study that analyzes the impact of the MCCT through the analysis of the data of a survey answered by 109 former students of this center. Findings show that the methodologies developed by the MCCT allow the creation of technology-based enterprises and entrepreneurial skills in students. This study presents good practices that can be emulated by other countries in the region, as well as recognizing the great value the role of higher education in creating synergies between actors of the innovation ecosystem that strengthen social and economic growth.

Key Events

This article examines the key events leading to the creation of the California higher education system and Clark Kerr’s influential concept the “multiversity.” The wide, uncritical reception of this term requires explanation, which the essay explores both in terms of Kerr’s 1963 book, The Uses of the University, and in terms of its impact even on historical scholarship about American higher education. The essay concludes by finding the multiversity a highly selective (not an inclusive) standard and a latter-day extension of a pragmatic ideology with a long history and many unacknowledged problems.

Há décadas o mundo universitário brasileiro mantém boas relações de cooperação e intercâmbio acadêmicos no plano internacional. Tais relações têm se revelado de grande importância, proporcionando aos nossos professores e pesquisadores condições de diálogo e trabalho visando a exploração das fronteiras do conhecimento. Desse ponto de vista, a dimensão internacional da educação e da pesquisa parece absolutamente evidente. O mesmo não se pode dizer a propósito do debate envolvendo a Universidade como instituição. O artigo apresenta um panorama da evolução desse debate na cena internacional desde a Conferência Mundial sobre Educação Superior, realizada em Paris em 1998.Palavras-chave: universidade pública; educação superior; internacionalização da educação superior; Conferência Mundial sobre Educação Superior; Organização Mundial do Comércio. Abstract: The Brazilian universities have had good relations of cooperation and academic exchange at international level for decades. These relations are of paramount importance to advance the conditions of dialogue and work of our professors and researchers, aiming at exploring the frontiers of knowledge. From this standpoint, the international dimension of education and research is quite obvious. However, this does not seem to be the case when the debate involves the University as an institution. This article presents a view of the evolution of this discussion in the international scene since the World Conference on Higher Education, held in Paris in 1998.

The article is aimed at developing the conceptual principles for the creation and functioning of innovation-active university (IAU) as a modern strategic model of higher education institution in conditions of transformation and digitalization of society. A number of problems and contradictions are allocated and systematized, causing the need to transform the traditional university into an innovation-active, entrepreneurial structure, the activity of which consists in the interaction of the university with the economy, public administration bodies and society. It is determined that the formation of a new paradigm for the development of the higher education system raises the need for innovation-active universities in the form of entrepreneurial organizations that have a resource willingness to promote accelerated development of both the economy and society through intensive transfer of new, generated at the university knowledge and technology on the basis of partnership with key stakeholders. On the basis of studying the conceptual basis of the emergence and development of the IAU, a number of hypotheses of building an innovation-active university were developed, a system of conceptual provisions and principles of its functioning was formed. The purpose and objectives of the innovation-active university are defined, the system-forming directions of its innovation activity are allocated and characterized. On the basis of the carried out researches, the framework for the creation and development of the IAU was formed, containing a list of components of the internal environment and the factors that ensure their support on the basis of development of entrepreneurship and innovation. Prospects for further research in this direction are the development of a mechanism for the functioning of an innovation-active university, which will ensure the effective transformation of higher education institution on the basis of innovation and entrepreneurship development and will contribute to maintaining a high level of its competitiveness in the educational space.
