Consejos Técnicos Escolares, un espacio de colaboración para evaluar el ejercicio docente en Educación Básica

Abstract

This research - a case study - was conducted in two schools at the basic education stage (educación básica) and 54 educators - 45 from primary and 9 from preschool education - participated. The purpose was to study how the Practice Community (PC) introduced in Technical School Board (TSB) meetings would benefit the analysis of learning assessment practices from collaborative work. Each school held four video-recorded meetings of approximately two hours in duration. It was found that teachers identified opportunity areas for improving practice through collaborative work, which led to a stronger, more open relationship between them and reflection on their assessment practices.
