PEINADO MORENO, Maritza; TORRES GARCIA, Caridad; VALLE HERNANDEZ, María F y PADRON NOVALES, Carmen I. A challenge for quality. An assessment of professorial competence. Rev Ciencias Médicas [online]. 2007, vol.11, n.5, pp. 27-32. ISSN 1561-3194.
One of the challenges our country has set in the past few years is the quality of formation and improvement of Human Resources. This process has directly been linked to political, economical, social changes, therefore we aimed at determining the quality in the assessment of the professorial competence in the specialty of Nursing, through the Seventh Examination of Competence and Performance in Pinar del Rio province, from October to March, 2006. A prospective, descriptive research was carried out to assess the quality results accomplished in such tool. Out of the whole sample of 501 professors placed in all municipalities, a sample of 125 Nursing professors was studied, out of them seven belonged to subjects of comprehensive formation (Language and Physical Education). An exhaustive research was performed through a database in Excel, where the following variables were analyzed: teaching category, error frequency, taking into account the type of question asked in the tool, quality of qualification, as well as the incidence of professors disqualified by venues, where we can state that there was a predominance of the instructor category in those assessed. The question with greatest difficulties was number 3, related to the organizational forms of teaching, the quality of evaluations was not satisfactory.
