Abstract
Under project EA2009-0005 of the General Management of Universities (Ministry of Education), this paper aims to inform teachers about the competences Spanish universities define as essential to describe the role of teachers. From the analysis of these competences, we set up a system of indicators for the assessment of teaching quality. In order to do so and after asking the quality units of Spanish universities for the instruments currently in use to carry out teacher assessment, we analysed the different models received in order to extract the dimensions, competences and indicators for estimating the quality of the teaching activity of teachers. Also, measurement systems used for evaluation were analysed. A pilot instrument was set up for the assessment of teaching competences validated with the Delphi assessment technique in compliance with a group of experts on evaluating teaching from the University of Córdoba, Salamanca, Jaume I de Castellón, Huelva and Seville.Downloads
