Declining or rising academic freedom: what is the European trend? Vögtle, E. (2021, Juni). Declining or rising academic freedom: what is the European trend? Vortrag auf der Konferenz 27th International Conference of Europeanists, Council for European Studies, Reykjavík, Island.
Abstract
In the 2018 Bologna Process Implementation Report, consitutional and legal protection of academic freedom has been monitored; however, given the obvious discrepancies between law and practice in some EHEA countries, a purely legal analysis risks capturing a misleading picture if a country's de facto situation is not assessed against it. The paper to be presented is concerned with the impact of the Bologna Process on the de facto state of academic freedom. Thus we analyze not only whether countries have provisions for the protection of academic freedom in place, but also use the Academic Freedom Index (AFI) and its components to assess the actual state of academic freedom in the sampled countries.

Informationsportale für eine barrierefreie digitale Lehre. Was können deutsche Hochschulen von den USA lernen? Oberschelp, A. (2021, Juni). Informationsportale für eine barrierefreie digitale Lehre. Was können deutsche Hochschulen von den USA lernen? Impulsvortrag im Rahmen der Digitaltags 2021 "Digitale Barrieren an Hochschulen - Strategien und Perspektiven", Hochschulforum Digitalisierung, Berlin.
Abstract
Educational offerings must be designed inclusively in order to offer everyone equal opportunities to participate. The digitization of teaching is a key element here, because digitally supported teaching and learning arrangements offer the opportunity to adapt higher education offerings to different needs. In many places, committed efforts can be seen to provide barrier-free digital teaching at universities. Nevertheless, it is worth taking a look abroad to generate impulses for the German higher education landscape. This study, commissioned by the German Rectors' Conference (HRK), uses a content analysis to analyze the websites of U.S. universities and discusses if relevant issues can be transferred to Germany.

Academic Freedom within the EHEA. Declining or Rising Academic Freedom? Vögtle, E. (2021, Mai). Academic Freedom within the EHEA. Declining or Rising Academic Freedom? Vortrag auf der Konferenz EUROSTUDENT VII-Final Conference, Malta Further & Higher Education Authority und DZHW, Rabat und Hannover, Malta und Deutschland.
Abstract
Having seen academic freedom challenged in some European Higher Education Area (EHEA) member countries, the protection of academic freedom is high on the Bologna Processes’ agenda until recently. The paper presented is concerned with the de facto state of academic freedom in the participating countries, given the obvious discrepancies between law and practice in some EHEA countries. In addition to monitoring constitutional and legal protection of academic freedom, the academic freedom index (AFi) and its components sre used to assess the actual state of academic freedom in the sampled countries. The lack of the students' perspective is also discussed.

Between Autocracy and Collegiality: Student Evaluation of Teaching, Hiring and Dismissal in Colombian Universities. Pineda, P. (2021, April). Between Autocracy and Collegiality: Student Evaluation of Teaching, Hiring and Dismissal in Colombian Universities. Vortrag auf dem Workshop International Collegiality, Upssala University, Upssala, Schweden.
Abstract
I analysed 14 interviews to academics and administrators of six public and private Colombian elite universities where collegial relations could be expected to be especially present (see Pineda & Seidenschnur, 2021). I show that collegial structures and procedures in contemporary Colombian higher education operate mostly in some higher education institutions of the public sector and for a minority of the professors. For academics in almost all private sector and most academics (those working under zero-hours-based contracts) collegiality is a foreign idea to their everyday work at universities. I end reflecting on the connection between academic relationships and wider contexts of social violence and inequality.

Job Stability and Instability at Universities in Chile, Colombia, Germany, and the United States. Pineda, P. (2021, April/Mai). Job Stability and Instability at Universities in Chile, Colombia, Germany, and the United States. Vortrag auf der Konferenz CIES 2021 Conference Social Responsibility within Changing Contexts, Comparative and International Education Society, Seattle, USA.
Abstract
The first major finding in this study is that academic employment is increasingly segmented. Academics are no longer a monolithic group with different ranges of power (Clark, 1986). The second key finding is that permanent employment for scholars is not associated with universities´ growth of an administrative apparatus engaged in enduring institutional accreditation as performative commitment to educational quality. Our third contribution was in showing that, as higher education expands, the labor market for academics becomes segmented. Universities, especially older, public universities outside the US and Chile, better funded, those with more doctorate graduates and with more prestige seem to maintain faculty stability.

The ‘Global South’ in the network of transnational student mobility. Effects of institutional stability, reputation, post-colonial ties, and cultural homophily. Vögtle, E. (2021, März). The ‘Global South’ in the network of transnational student mobility. Effects of institutional stability, reputation, post-colonial ties, and cultural homophily. Vortrag auf der Tagung Aktuelle Entwicklungen der Netzwerkforschung und Computational Social Science, Mark Lutter, Jan Riebling, Nico Sonntag und Linus Weidner, Universität Wuppertal, Deutschland.
Abstract
Which role does institutional fragility or stability play for the attractiveness of a country as study destination? How does this interact with socio-economic conditions? Is homophily between countries still influential for transnational student mobility if we analyze a global sample without any pre-selection of countries? Are colonial ties between countries still influential for the direction and intensity of student exchange networks?
