Description
Summary:Daily life in the world today has become a constant run into new ways of being more complete, more enjoyable and richer experiences. From there arises the need for an awakening in reference to how it has been implementing the evaluation process in our educational system in Venezuela. Two trends, one quantitative and one qualitative, the first focuses exclusively on the number of outputs and outcomes made, the second describes and interprets the processes taking place throughout the educational environment. We believe that educational evaluation includes two aspects: evaluation is to measure and evaluate is to predict, though rather short and medium term. As aptamos to focus the evaluation not only in measuring the end results, if not in the collection of information on the variables involved in the process of teaching and learning, and emphasizes the qualitative trend, but quantified in a measure, how to claim the quantitative trend. All aimed at making decisions that govern the researcher as its paradigm.
