Resumen

Este artí­culo describe mis experiencias con la evaluación de la enseñanza por parte de los alumnos, basándose en varias décadas de trabajo como investigador, docente y académico. Abordo tres preguntas complejas que han recibido poca atención en la literatura, y que se centran en los factores que han impulsado la evaluación, su eficacia y por qué esta se ha integrado en la práctica académica. Las prácticas de evaluación contemporáneas, desde un punto de vista teórico, pueden considerarse como neoliberales y con fines de cumplimiento de las funciones atribuidas a un profesional. El artí­culo concluye que las evaluaciones obligatorias fallan en su intención neoliberal y pueden ser perjudiciales para la enseñanza y el aprendizaje de los estudiantes.
