Estudio Cuantitativo que evalúa la consistencia interna de asignaturas impartidas en una universidad privada, específicamente en cuanto a la evaluación del aprendizaje y su coherencia con los objetivos planificados. Para ello fueron consideradas asignaturas que, de forma voluntaria, ofrecieron los profesores de un campus universitario para participar del estudio. Mediante análisis por niveles taxonómicos del aprendizaje cognitivo fueron analizados doce programas, encontrando diferencias entre la intención formativa y el diseño de las evaluaciones. Se concluye que el profesorado tiene una práctica dominante centrada en el aprendizaje visto como instrucción. De forma lateral se encontraron indicios de una concepción emergente, en que el aprendizaje es visto como una construcción. Hacia el final se presenta una propuesta de trabajo para el cuerpo docente.
Nursing is possible owing to a series of intricate systemic relations. Building on an established tradition of sociological research, we critically analysed the nursing profession in Chile, with an emphasis on its education system, in the light of social systems theory. The paper's aim was to explore basic characteristics of nursing education as a system, so as to outline its current evolution. Drawing on recent developments in nursing, we applied an empirical framework to identify and discuss functionally differentiated systems that are relevant to nursing and observe communications between them. We found that the dynamics of nursing as a whole develop from communications with closely related systems, including the nursing profession and the education system more broadly. While the discipline (as a system of representations) strives to control the profession (as an applied occupational field), the necessities of practicing nurses imply other forces mediating the making of the profession, a process framed by market dynamics in education and health.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
