And it certainly should be. It is complex because of the need to consider both people and the organization (university institution), as well as society and the context within which it operates. After an analysis of how we have arrived at the institution we have today, the article in question with this evocative title examines the future by emphasizing four challenges, namely: new social echelons’ access to higher education, the exponential growth in information, the influence of business management and the bureaucratization of university work. Naturally, other challenges could also be included, but it is reasonable to limit them. Before addressing these challenges, the author reflects on the forerunners. The current situation of the university, where it is today, is the result of the past. The future is the horizon; now in our space it is Europe’s Horizon. In summary, the current situation is the outcome of a range of factors (LuqueMartínez, 2020), some of them sociodemographic, either social (population structure, concentration, spread of university education, etc.) or specific to the university (academic mobility, ageing, attracting talent, access, etc.). Other factors are economic, also either in society in general (income level and distribution, scholarship policy, economic context, economic consequences of the pandemic, etc.) or specific to the university (financial structure, available resources, fees, management). Another important factor is internationalization (being part of the European area) and the process of globalization, with all the tensions stemming therefrom. Coupled with the latter, one particularly disruptive factor is technological change, due to its implications on society, the economy, the university and the teaching–learning process. This is what is called the digital transformation and Industry 4.0, which encompasses concepts like artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, robotics, 3D printing, augmented reality and others. Finally, we should include universities’ commitment to engaging in activities with their communities (such as by fulfiling the Sustainability Development Goals, SDGs) and with the COVID-19 pandemic. The health crisis (and its consequent economic crisis) is leading us to reconsider the what and how of university activities, shifting the focal","PeriodicalId":51688,"journal":{"name":"Culture and Education","volume":"35 1","pages":"425 - 430"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2021-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85044841","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For several years, the accreditation requirements of university professorates have included publications on education in indexed journals. This study reports that Spain’s leadership in publications on education dovetails in time with the inclusion of these requirements in the regulations on access to the university professorate. Likewise, the number of education journals headquartered in Spain was also analysed, and significant increases have been found in the number of these journals during the period analysed; Spain is ranked near the top worldwide on this indicator as well. The main conclusion of this study is that the requirement to publish on teaching in the university professorate accreditation processes in recent years has significantly influenced the publication figures in indexed journals as well as the number of indexed journals headquartered in Spain.","PeriodicalId":51688,"journal":{"name":"Culture and Education","volume":"136 1","pages":"292 - 315"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2021-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86435445","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objective of this study is to analyse the inclusive processes that university professors carry out to meet the needs of students with functional diversity and to identify how the variables of gender and training influence their attitudes towards inclusion. We administered the ‘Diver-Form-Questionnaire on Diversity and University Education’ survey to 431 professors from the University of Jaén. The results show that the instructors implement inclusive educational processes in their teaching practice, although there are significant differences in their attitudes regarding gender and training when implementing these inclusive actions. The conclusions indicate that it is necessary to rethink their teacher training in order to move towards educational inclusion and diversity at university.","PeriodicalId":51688,"journal":{"name":"Culture and Education","volume":"71 1","pages":"345 - 372"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2021-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90363510","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the past 40 years, the unprecedented development of digital information and communication technologies, globalization and the increasing power of large corporations have disrupted value scales that were believed to be solidly entrenched. The way we create, store, access and assess information and knowledge; the world of work and knowledge; the competences and skills needed to access and remain in the university; and the ways we research and the very meaning of research have all been transformed. And the question is: What role does the university play today? Because the issues related to the ways academic responsibility and quality are assessed, the mechanisms of hiring and promoting teaching and research staff, support for innovation and scientific advancement and the role of scholarly publications in academic promotion may have very different answers depending on the institution’s mission, vision and ambition. In this text, I examine the four challenges of today’s university which I consider the most important, related to ‘excessive’ numbers of students, the exponential growth in information, the influence of business management and the bureaucratization of university work.","PeriodicalId":51688,"journal":{"name":"Culture and Education","volume":"13 1","pages":"397 - 411"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2021-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85198552","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The literature suggests that levels of academic inbreeding depend on both institutional and structural factors within the universities themselves, as well as contextual factors in the country and/or region. In this study, we empirically analyse the causal relationship between levels of academic inbreeding at Spanish public universities and the characteristics of the university context and their institutional features. Our results show that the variables that most influence the level of endogamy of Spanish public universities are their age and their specialization by field of knowledge. Furthermore, the academic inbreeding in Spain seems more related to the chair-holding dynamics by which professors gain power than to any other factor.","PeriodicalId":51688,"journal":{"name":"Culture and Education","volume":"46 1","pages":"229 - 258"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2021-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73494767","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
