El porvenir del programa institucional de la Universidad de Buenos Aires : Un acercamiento a la figura de Reisieri Frondizi

Las Universidades públicas en América Latina se enfrentan a nuevos dilemas y problemas en un escenario de globalización académica, tendencias a la transnacionalización y privatización de la educación universitaria y a la descapitalización del sistema público. El tiempo presente invita a explorar lo que Francois Duber denominó como el proceso de declive de las instituciones modernas. En tanto ese declive se vincula con la sobrevivencia precaria proponemos explorar el caso de la Universidad de Buenos Aires. Nuestro objetivo es indagar en qué período histórico quedó localizado el programa institucional y cuáles de sus improntas permanecen hoy, deteniéndonos en el ciclo que la historiografía sobre la Universidad argentina identifica como de renovación y modernización universitaria (1955-1966). Para ello exploraremos la obra escrita y la trayectoria de Risieri Frondizi, una figura de notorio prestigio, a la vez olvidada pero omnipresente en toda reflexión sobre la Universidad.

Text Comprehension And roduction in University Students: Text Reformulation

This paper sets out to report on findings about features of task-specific reformulation observed in university students in the middle stretch of the Psychology degree course (N=58) and in a reference group of students from the degree courses in Modern Languages, Spanish and Library Studies (N=33) from the National University of La Plata (Argentina). Three types of reformulation were modeled: summary reformulation, comprehensive and productive reformulation.The study was based on a corpus of 621 reformulations rendered from different kinds of text. The versions obtained were categorised according to the following criteria: presence or absence of normative, morphosyntactic and semantic difficulties. Findings show that problems arise particularly with paraphrase and summary writing. Observation showed difficulties concerning punctuation, text cohesion and coherence , and semantic distortion or omission as regards extracting and/or substituting gist, with limited lexical resources and confusion as to suitability of style/register in writing. The findings in this study match those of earlier, more comprehensive research on the issue and report on problems experienced by a significant number of university students when interacting with both academic texts and others of a general nature. Moreover, they led to questions, on the one hand, as to the nature of such difficulties, which appear to be production-related problems and indirectly account for inadequate text comprehension, and on the other hand, as to the features of university tuition when it comes to text handling.
