INTEGRAL EVALUATION OF THE TEACHERS OF THE POLYTECHNIC SCHOOL OF CHIMBORAZO, ECUADOR.
Main Article Content
Abstract
The lack of a comprehensive system of evaluation of teachers in the Polytechnic School of Chimborazo, Ecuador, has produced an absence of parameters that allow evaluating the academic performance of university teachers, in the fields of teaching, research, linkage with the community and university management, contemplated in the Regulation of Teaching Evaluation for Higher Education Institutions, proposed by the National Council for Evaluation and Accreditation of Higher Education of Ecuador (CONEA). This research project is aimed at characterizing the academic performance of the professors of the School of Biochemistry and Pharmacy of the Faculty of Chemical Sciences of the Polytechnic School of Chimborazo, through a comprehensive evaluation. At first, it was proposed to analyze the teaching evaluation carried out in 2020 and 2022 in the School of Biochemistry and Pharmacy and, then, in a second moment, to design and apply new instruments aimed at self-evaluation, co-evaluation and heteroevaluation, within the framework of a proposal for comprehensive teacher evaluation. After carrying out the analysis of the results of the evaluation, it will be possible to identify the characteristics of the integral academic performance of the teaching staff, information that will serve the School to promote the improvement of the educational and research process.
