Análisis del juicio evaluativo de los estudiantes universitarios a través de su percepción competencial

Zusammenfassung

The importance of self-, peer- or co-assessment as a means of developing self-regulation and lifelong learning has been highlighted by numerous studies on assessment in higher education. However, these assessment strategies would be meaningless if they did not develop students' evaluative judgement, that is, their ability to evaluate the quality of their efforts, their performances or their output. This contribution presents the results obtained from analysing the responses to a survey provided by a total of 206 undergraduates studying degrees in Business Administration and Management (ADE: Administración y Dirección de Empresas), Finance and Accounting (FYCO: Finanzas y Contabilidad) and Primary Education (EP: Educación Primaria) at Spanish universities during the 2016-17 academic year. These students completed the holistic version of the Self-report on the development of students’ basic competences (COMPES_h). The main finding is the moderate consistency of the perceived competence that the university students show, an aspect that demonstrates the need to produce assessment training processes that facilitate and enhance the development of students' evaluative judgement.
