Transformation of university education. From the principle of reason to the principle of the market / Transformacja kształcenia uniwersyteckiego. Od zasady rozumu do zasady rynku
Journal Title: Przegląd Socjologiczny - Year 2016, Vol 0, Issue 4
Abstract
Some ideological trends in higher education global discourse, and practical changes in higher education institutions that occur in countries participating in Bologna process, are leading to decreasing the quality of teaching and learning in many fields of university studies. In this paper an attempt is made to characterize the quality of higher education as a subjective or inter-subjective construct referring to the effectiveness and usefulness of the educational process. Also, some aspects of the marketisation of universities (in particular some of its underlying reasons and consequences) are discussed in the last part of the paper.
