ENSAYOSP163462023-02-09T15:11:08Z Assessment of the Academic Conference as a Tool for Professional Development and Stregnthening of Language Teachers' Skills Evaluación de la conferencia académica como herramienta de desarrollo profesional y de fortalecimiento de capacidades en profesores de idiomas Barrantes Elizondo, Lena Olivares Garita, Cinthya conferencia académica desarrollo profesional evaluación de programas academic conference professional development program evaluation Conferences possess an informative nature about the academic work that recognizes them as a regular practice within the professional academic arena. This type of activity that favors teachers’ professional development has become compulsory at the university level through time. In this way, academic conferences are an essential communicative-cognitive source for higher education. This study encompasses the evaluation of an academic conference by following principles of program evaluation. That valuation followed three approaches: program-oriented evaluation, decision-oriented evaluation, and participant-oriented evaluation. Although it impacts a project of a specific context, its results inform successful practices that might benefit similar initiatives. The dissemination of these data constitutes input to make thought-out and assertive decisions for the execution of effective and enriching academic conferences that would promote teachers’ professional development. It was concluded that the emancipatory role that the university grants to the individual through the spreading of knowledge is vital for the accompaniment of teachers of English inasmuch as their collective lens is strengthened so that greater social interaction is achieved. Collaborative networks, as constituted through academic conferences, promote feedback and humanization of teachers’ social relations who learn in collaboration with others. Las conferencias poseen un carácter divulgativo del quehacer académico, que las ha convertido en un discurso habitual en el círculo académico. Este tipo de actividad favorecedora del desarrollo profesional ha llegado a adquirir cierta obligatoriedad en el ámbito universitario. Es así como se entiende que las conferencias académicas son, para la educación universitaria, una forma comunicativo-cognitiva imprescindible. Este trabajo investigativo realiza la evaluación de una conferencia académica, según principios de la teoría de evaluación de programas. Dicha valoración siguió tres enfoques de evaluación orientada: a programas, a la toma de decisiones y a los participantes. A pesar de que impacta un contexto específico, sus resultados devienen en prácticas que benefician la implementación de la conferencia académica como herramienta de desarrollo profesional docente. Se concluyó que el papel emancipador que otorga la universidad a través de la difusión de conocimiento es vital para acompañar a docentes de inglés, en tanto se fortalezca su lente colectivo, en procura de una mayor interacción social. Las redes de relaciones colaborativas, como las conferencias académicas, promueven la retroacción y la humanización de los vínculos sociales del docente, quien aprende en colaboración con otros.
