This work consists of an investigation about the perception of higher education professors from two public institutions in the city of Maceió, in relation to the student’s autonomy. It focuses to investigate how the university professor perceives the student’s autonomy during the learning process, aiming to use new methodologies, information and communication technologies (ICT), and integration with all participants. The verification of student’s autonomy existence is a complex process. It involves several personal elements, such as: initiative, organization, motivation, interaction with involved parties; and external elements: organizational structure, curriculum, methodology used, pedagogical relation, as well as the format of the educational system. The methodology used is based on the qualitative research with a descriptive approach. From the data analysis of the professor's perspective, changes to the curriculum were suggested, and new methodologies such as problem-based learning, the use of hybrid teaching, and inverted classroom were proven to be the most efficient. It was also mentioned that technology could also be used to help in the learning process, as long as the students have the maturity, responsibility, and discipline necessary to use it, as it could also disperse them. There is a need of deeper research into the topic, because it is possible to conclude that, although students have levels of autonomy, they cannot be totally autonomous in the learning process.

Keywords : Teacher; Student autonomy; Higher education; Learning process.
