Abstract
La educación, y sobre todo la educación superior, son sometidas, en estos tiempos, a una profunda revisión de sentidos. Es en este contexto "difuso" de demandas y ademanes postmodernos donde se van configurándose respuestas tentativas a las mismas, una de ellas es el Servicio-Aprendizaje (A-S). Entre las demandas que deben ser asumidas como retos y constituirse en pilares de la educación superior del futuro están la responsabilidad social universitaria y la calidad académica, la pregunta es ¿cómo edificarlos? Al hilo de la respuesta a dicha pregunta se estructuran los pasos de este ensayo en tres momentos decisivos: uno sobre los desafíos que propone la UNESCO y que sigue al informe Delors, el segundo constituye un análisis sobre la responsabilidad social universitaria y termina exponiendo una propuesta de reforma educativa verdadera basada en el Servicio-Aprendizaje (S-A).
Education, and especially higher education, are subject, in these times, to a profound revision. It is in this "diffuse" context of demands and postmodern gestures where and where they are configuring tentative answers to them, one of them is the Service-Learning (AS). Between the demands that must be assumed as challenges and become pillars of the higher education of the future are the university social responsibility and academic quality, the question is how to build them? Steps of this essay in three decisive moments are structured in line with the answer to this question: one on the challenges that the UNESCO proposes and that follows to the report Delors, the second is an analysis of the social responsibility of universities and ends exposing a proposal for genuine education reform based on Service-Learning (S-L).
