Excursiones históricas en la educación superior en Estados Unidos de Norteamérica
Palabras clave:
Educación superior, historia de la educación, política educativa.Resumen
Durante la última década, la educación superior de Estados Unidos se ha transformado como nunca antes en sus más de trescientos años de historia. A pesar de tener un origen íntimamente ligado a los grupos religiosos de los colonizadores ingleses, hoy en día, se caracteriza por una apertura creciente en el acceso de estudiantes y por un sistema descentralizado que permite la diversidad institucional. En el presente trabajo, se explican ambos rasgos a través de un recorrido retrospectivo por las principales tendencias de la educación superior norteamericana actual, y en el camino, se hace un recuento crítico de su desarrollo, sus políticas, y las similitudes o diferencias con la educación superior de otros países.Descargas
