RESUMEN
Resumen El reconocimiento docente es configurado desde esquemas de valoración social explícitos e implícitos. Los primeros determinan formas de ser-hacer alienados a los parámetros de la universidad mercantilizada, donde se compite por el prestigio académico. Los segundos operan en el acto pedagógico y esquemas de vigencia social relacionados con entramados afectivos. Las políticas para la educación superior, materializadas en los procesos de acreditación de alta calidad actuales, han incidido en la construcción de dicho reconocimiento de los docentes universitarios, así mismo, se han generado estrategias de resistencia de los docentes para lograr la trasformación de los parámetros de valoración que los subjetivizan como profesionales.
Abstract Teaching recognition is put together from explicit and implicit social value schemes. The former determine ways of being-making alienated to the commercialized university, where you compete for academic prestige. The latter operate within the pedagogical act and social validity schemes related to affective networks. Policies for higher education, materialized in the current high quality accreditation processes, have influenced the construction of this recognition of university instructors. Likewise, strategies of resistance have been generated from the instructors to achieve the transformation of the valuation parameters that subjectivize them as professionals.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: The professional performance level of their alumni is one of the quality indicators of educational institutions. Nursing education institutions can use their alumni's performance analysis results to enhance their curricula, eliminate deficiencies, improve the quality of education and graduate more highly qualified nurses. OBJECTIVE AND DESIGN: This is a descriptive, cross-sectional and comparative study, which aimed to determine the professional performances of nurses who graduated from the same nursing faculty. METHODS: The study sample included alumni of Turkey's first nursing faculty, part of the nation's first public university in Istanbul, and their administrative supervisors. The study data were collected using the self-assessment forms of 314 alumni who worked as bedside nurses in 36 Istanbul hospitals, and 314 evaluations by the 195 nurse managers who supervised them. The study's response rate was 82.6%. To collect the study data, the researchers created a performance evaluation form based on the relevant literature. The same form was administered both to the nurse managers and the alumni. The researchers obtained ethical board approval and official permissions from the relevant hospitals to conduct the study. The study data were analyzed by a statistics expert. RESULTS: According to the study results, the alumni's perceptions of themselves as well as the nurse managers' perceptions of the alumni were different from those of the other nurses with undergraduate degrees in terms of professional knowledge, expectations and ideals. The performance evaluation results showed that the alumni evaluated themselves more positively than their managers did. It was determined that there were highly significant differences (p=0.000) between the values provided by the five sub-dimensions of the scale and the total scale. In addition, the performance level was low in the sub-dimension focusing on research, and there was a significant difference in this sub-dimension (p=0.040). CONCLUSIONS: The study found that the alumni mainly had better evaluations of their own performances than their nurse managers, and that the research skills of the alumni should be enhanced.
