Authors

Abstract

This research focuses its interest on methods and uses of the learning evaluation results by 205 professors of Law, Engineering and Education, linked to three universities in Bogotá, Colombia, in times of crisis generated by the Covid 19 virus. The research question was: what are the characteristics of the learning assessment practices
carried out by professors from three universities in Colombia, in terms of methods, use of results, and changes caused during the pandemic? The object of study is part of the qualitative approach, descriptive process based on data collection and analysis, through the application of an instrument validated through expert judgment. The results show the incidence of teachers’ practices and learning from fellow teachers in the similar use of oral, written, closed-ended tests, class participation and attendance, and individual written work in the three programs where teachers work. Essays, group oral exams,
fieldwork; and visit reports, focus for training and learning, are of lesser use. During the pandemic, evaluation continues to be assumed as a qualification and the use of technological resources for its development is privileged.
