Abstract

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.

Abstract

This edited volume explores how undergraduate research and research-based teaching is being implemented in countries around the world. Leading educators come together to discuss commonly accepted definitions of undergraduate research, country-specific models and partnerships for student research, university policies and practices to support faculty and staff who engage students in research, and available assessment data that supports the effectiveness of undergraduate research as a means to increase student engagement and academic achievement. As undergraduate research has spread around the world, professors, administrators, and policymakers benefit by learning about other approaches and models of undergraduate research. Nancy H. Hensel was the first President of the New American Colleges and Universities (NACU), as well as the CEO of the Council on Undergraduate Research. She is the author ofCourse-Based Undergraduate Research: Educational Equity and High Impact Practice(2018) along with several other articles and monographs about undergraduate research. Patrick Blessinger is Adjunct Associate Professor of Education at St. John’s University, USA. He is Founder, Executive Director, and Chief Research Scientist of the International Higher Education Teaching and Learning Association (HETL) and serves as an educator with the New York State Education Department, USA.
