Impacte de la formació del professorat universitari: Aspectes metodològics i proposta per a futures investigacions
Resum
Aquest article presenta un resum de quatre investigacions empíriques que afronten la manca d’avaluació sistemàtica de la formació del professorat en l’educació superior. Tres estudis examinen l’impacte de la formació en els estils d’ensenyament dels educadors, les percepcions dels estudiants sobre el comportament docent dels professors, els enfocaments dels alumnes i els resultats d’aprenentatge que assoleixen. Un quart estudi examina l’impacte individual a llarg termini (en les concepcions d’ensenyament del professorat i el comportament docent), així com alguns aspectes de l’impacte institucional. Atenent una avaluació crítica dels resultats i el disseny metodològic dels estudis, se suggereixen vies per a futures investigacions: les condicions que afavoreixen l’impacte, la triangulació de dades, l’impacte a llarg termini i l’impacte institucional.Paraules clau
