Beyond the bibliography: Tradition, innovation and student experience in postgraduate education

Author: Charles S. Keck y Antonio Saldívar
Abstract: The concept of de-articulation is employed to characterise the negative components within the experience of postgraduate students. This same concept is subsequently applied as a means to evaluate an innovative course offered within the same postgraduate program. The study concludes that it is possible to articulate an epistemological and ontological education (Barnett, 2007), and thus achieve a re-articulation ofthe imaginary of postgraduate studies with what students experience in reality. The study proposes some principles that
help to situate students and teachers at the centre of the formative experience of postgraduate studies.
