MAGANA ECHEVERRIA, Martha Alicia; MONTESINOS LOPEZ, Osval Antonio  y  HERNANDEZ SUAREZ, Carlos Moisés. Comparación del nivel de escolaridad para el desempeño docente y académico. Del profesorado de tiempo completo de la Universidad de Colima. RMIE [online]. 2007, vol.12, n.33, pp.615-634. ISSN 1405-6666.

This article compares the educational level of full-time faculty members at Universidad de Colima with their teaching and academic performance, based on an analysis of variance and canonical discrimination in the 2001-2004 period. During each one of the four years, in terms of teaching performance, no significant difference was found in educational level: professors with doctoral, master’s and undergraduate degrees were statistically equal in teaching performance. Educational level was found to have a direct effect, however, on academic performance: the more education the teacher had, the better his academic performance. The predominant factors were teaching duties and research activities, thus minimizing the influence of tutoring and collegiate action.

Palabras llave : professors; academic evaluation; academic performance; educational level; higher education; Mexico.
