Proposal for an instrument for teacher evaluation at UNAN-MANAGUA.

Abstract

This article describes the procedures applied to the proposal of an evaluation instrument at the National University of Nicaragua, in response to the recently approved curricular changes; and presents the results of the Confirmatory Factor Analysis as applied to the questionnaire, using a scale of four adjectives of ordinal metering. There is a sample of 773 students to analyse the reliability and structural validity through a CFA. Results show that the three-factor model proposed presents high quality indexes of adjustment. The CFA of this model confirms that this questionnaire meets the technical requirements to be applied as an evaluation instrument.
