Abstract

Resumen: El objetivo de este artículo es presentar los resultados de una evaluación piloto en el enfoque de competencias académicas en el pregrado de Economía de la Universidad del Magdalena, aplicada para los cursos de Macroeconomía I, Estadística II, Finanzas Públicas y Economía Regional en el segundo semestre de 2018. Se muestra que una evaluación de este tipo arroja una medida sobre lo que un estudiante puede hacer con lo que aprendió. Así mismo, la metodología que permite definir las competencias de cada curso se establece en coherencia con el perfil profesional del pregrado. Este artículo contribuye a la literatura sobre la renovación de los métodos de evaluación en la educación superior en Colombia. / Abstract : This paper presents the results of an experimental test on proficiency-based assessment in Economics at University of Magdalena (Colombia), in the second half of 2018.

This paper contributes to the literature regarding the renewal of evaluation methods in higher education in Colombia.
