Objectives: To analyze the imagery of women on reconciling work and family life to explore the beliefs, opinions and related experiences of gender inequality. Methods: We applied a qualitative methodology of in-depth, semi-structured individual and group women in vocational training courses. We have also conducted interviews with experts on gender equality. Results: Women and experts interviewed manifest the presence of barriers to reconciling work and family both in the organizations, career advancement, and applicable legislation. Conclusions: There is an undercurrent in the collective imagination and individual beliefs of society that allows the maintenance of the values associated with the patriarchal organization, sexual division of labor and socializing unequal gender roles. It is required a transformation of work organization to improve the lives of people.
Abordar desde una perspectiva profesional la evaluación del alumnado implica reflexionar sobre el modelo educativo tradicional, que ha empleado las pruebas de evaluación consistentes en la reproducción escrita de los contenidos como el referente fundamental para evaluar y calificar los conocimientos del alumnado. Sin embargo, en las últimas décadas la comunidad científica educativa ha planteado alternativas a esa evaluación en el plano estratégico, técnico, temporal e instrumental. El objetivo que se marca la investigación es conocer la producción científica sobre la evaluación formativa, relacionada con un modelo complejo y social, frente a la evaluación sumativa, de carácter más operacional e individual. Para ello se ha empleado una metodología mixta que analiza cuantitativa y cualitativamente la evaluación formativa y sumativa en la literatura científica a través de una revisión bibliográfica de las investigaciones de la última década, comparando sus principales indicadores bibliométricos y usando para ello la base de datos Web of Science. Los resultados arrojan un número de investigaciones sobre evaluación formativa notablemente superior a las investigaciones sobre evaluación sumativa, un dominio de la investigación anglosajona y una relación de la investigación sobre evaluación de la educación con otras áreas científicas. Entre las conclusiones se observa que la evaluación del alumnado es una línea de investigación con larga trayectoria histórica que continúa siendo un objeto de investigación de actualidad y generador de transferencia tecnológica entre las distintas áreas de conocimiento.
Introduction. Sexuality and equality education are considered areas of relevant pedagogical research and intervention within current educational contexts in view of the violence and inequalities derived from the patriarchal system. Aims. This paper presents the main results of a research study that seeks to analyze the competence in sexuality and equality of university students during teacher training in Spain (Castilla la Mancha University). Method. For this, the study used a quantitative methodology and administered a nine-dimension questionnaire to 371 students. Results. The study revealed the weak acquisition of competence in sexuality and equality and the persistence of stereotyped images of sexualities. Furthermore, these findings show that future teachers have a weak equality-based professional practice due to an educational approach that lacks a gender perspective. Conclusions. The main conclusions highlight the evident formative needs in sexuality and equality and the absence of transforming feminist knowledge. All this can affect the development of quality education in sexuality and equality in students’ future educational practices.
