Resumen

La evaluación del aprendizaje es una parte esencial del proceso educativo y es aún más importante cuando se trata de cursos de formación de profesorado. Los procedimientos evaluativos estarán presentes a lo largo de la futura carrera docente de los estudiantes y, además, pueden entenderse como una oportunidad más de construcción de conocimiento, ya sea en la preparación o como experiencia práctica. Las prácticas educativas de los cursos de formación de profesorado deben estar en constante innovación para garantizar que la calidad educativa se extienda a las escuelas. El presente artículo aporta los primeros resultados de una Investigación Acción en Educación que pretende promover mejoras en la evaluación final de un curso de Pedagogía. El texto se estructura en un diálogo reflexivo-propositivo de los discursos de los alumnas y evaluadoras con la literatura científica sobre el tema. En esta primera fase de la investigación cualitativa se realizaron entrevistas semiestructuradas a ocho estudiantes de Pedagogía y a cinco evaluadoras de exámenes finales del mismo curso. Los resultados identificaron dos problemas principales: el sufrimiento psicológico de los estudiantes y la falta de información sobre la evaluación final. A partir de ahí, se pusieron en práctica cambios en el proceso evaluativo del curso para dar seguimiento a la investigación-acción que, actualmente, se encuentra en el segundo momento de evaluación con las alumnas que están pasando por el examen final con nuevas prácticas.
