The power of this neoliberal imaginary (Ball, 2012) was grounded in market-like policies that demanded institutional accountability to both afford competition and maximizing prospects of student satisfaction. A key consequence of this imperative has been burgeoning institutional and system-level investment in metric-based instruments designed to measure and compare student experiences, engagement or satisfaction. However, how effective of these neoliberal policies been in empowering student choice and in producing more reflexive institutions? The research reported here investigated the influence of student voices in one of the earliest adopters of this neoliberal imaginary: the Chilean higher education system. This qualitative study explored the contemporary institutional role and function of student voices using a university typology, with data developed through artefact analyses and interviews with educational leaders. The findings suggest that institutions have heterogeneous orientations ranging from pseudo-democratic to instrumental forms of engagement, reflecting the distinctive sociocultural histories of institutions. However, the outcomes suggest that student voices are not a substantial presence in quality assurance or improvement practices.  \nKeywords: higher education; student voice; Chile  \nMás ideacional que material: Explorando la función contemporánea de las voces estudiantiles en las universidades chilenas  \nResumen: Una promesa clave de las ideologías neoliberales en la educación superior fue lavalorización de la elección de los estudiantes como medio para (re)configurar las prácticasy mejorar la capacidad de respuesta de las instituciones. El poder de este imaginario neoliberal (Ball, 2012) se basa en políticas de tipo mercantil que exigen la responsabilidad institucional tanto para permitir la competencia como para maximizar las perspectivas de satisfacción de los estudiantes. Una consecuencia clave de este imperativo ha sido la floreciente inversión institucional y a nivel de sistema en instrumentos basados en métricasdiseñados para medir y comparar las experiencias, el compromiso o la satisfacción de los estudiantes. Sin embargo, ¿hasta qué punto han sido eficaces estas políticas neoliberales ala hora de potenciar la elección de los estudiantes y de crear instituciones más reflexivas? La investigación que aquí se presenta indaga la influencia de las voces de los estudiantes en uno de los primeros contextos que adoptaron este imaginario neoliberal: el sistema deeducación superior chileno. Este estudio cualitativo exploró el rol institucional contemporáneo y la función de las voces estudiantiles utilizando una tipologíauniversitaria, con datos desarrollados a través de análisis de artefactos y entrevistas con líderes educativos. Los resultados sugieren que las instituciones tienen orientacionesheterogéneas que van desde formas pseudodemocráticas hasta formas instrumentales de compromiso, reflejando las historias socioculturales distintivas de las instituciones. Sin embargo, los resultados sugieren que las voces de los estudiantes no tienen una presenciasustancial en las prácticas de asegurami","cbCaihGziUPNlaVv","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaihGziUPNlaVv","pdf",493031,23,"English","# Abstract\n## Key focus\n## Research design\n## Findings","[{\"question\":\"What is the central promise of neoliberal ideology in higher education discussed in the study?\",\"answer\":\"It emphasizes valuing student choice as a way to (re)shape institutional practices and improve responsiveness.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the study examine the role of student voices in Chilean universities?\",\"answer\":\"It uses a qualitative approach based on a university typology, combining artefact analyses with interviews with educational leaders.\"},{\"question\":\"What do the findings suggest about student voices in quality assurance or improvement practices?\",\"answer\":\"Student voices do not constitute a substantial presence in quality assurance or improvement practices.\"}]","More Ideational than Material - Exploring the Contemporary Role of Student Voices in Chilean Universities | PDF",1792094054,58]
