Abstract:
The article discusses some working hypotheses related to training proposals developed within the framework of the Teaching Learning Center (TLC). Under this name, there are structures and experiences which are often very diversified. On the other hand, they represent an unprecedented opportunity in the university system of our country for the promotion of the quality of teaching, the valorization of the development of teaching skills of university teaching and, consequently, for the improvement of the learning experience of students. This last aspect was the focus of a survey addressed to university professors and students of the University of Urbino Carlo Bo. The survey involves the administration to all students of the University of a questionnaire aimed at detecting their perception and their beliefs on evaluation in academic context. The paper discusses a hypothesis for structuring training courses focused on the evaluation of university teaching, consistent with the objectives of the TLC, based on data collected through the questionnaire (over one thousand replies) and also based on the results of a subsequent seminar with a group of university professors. In particular, the hypothesis converges on the identification of four fundamental cores which can constitute the framework for training design, in the TLC, of courses aimed at acquiring increased teaching competence of university professors in the field of evaluation.
