Beskrivning

Although academic freedom in teaching and learning methods is crucial to a nation’s growth, the concept comes with numerous misnomers and is subjected to much academic debate and doubt. This volume maps out how truth and intellectual integrity remain the fundamental principle on which the foundation of a university should be laid. Seeking to widen the frontiers of academic freedom, the authors serve up a diverse range of case studies and examples of real-life practice to encourage readers to recognize the importance of the academic freedom of faculty and students, and acknowledge this freedom as one of the main goals to be achieved by any university. Ultimately, the authors demonstrate that the autonomy to work freely remains the foremost criterion of success, that it is a pre-requisite to facilitating the advancement of knowledge and quality of research in any institution of higher education, and is to be encouraged and supported by the leadership teams within those institutions.

Recensioner i media

'The book deals with a matter of the utmost importance as it considers the different kind of threats to academic freedom. It analyzes from court cases of the early 20th century to its impact on online degree programs, from educational equity to students´ freedom of speech. It is a much-needed lecture because, in the end, for students and academics our voices and our words are the most powerful tools we have.'
