Resumen

DEPRESBITERIS, Léa. Auto-Avaliação das Instituições de Ensino Superior. Est. Aval. Educ. [online]. 2005, vol.16, n.32, pp.07-24. ISSN 0103-6831.

With this article I would like to invite you to reflect on the evaluation of institutions of higher education, mainly on the phase of self-evaluation. From the Latin actus -  meaning movement, impulse, action -, self-evaluation may be seen as a movement inwards, an action understanding what we are like so we can self-regulate ourselves, that is, improve our innermost self. When applied to institutions of higher education, self-evaluation demands, besides this inner voyage, the addition of an external “look”, absolutely essential for a multi-varied analysis which takes into account various sources of information, several criteria and mission-based indicators, policies, infra-structure, planning and evaluation, social responsibility and other important dimensions. This article suggests some premises for institutional self-evaluation, highlighting a fundamental ethical dimension which, according to Morin (2003), is self-ethical. Still based on this scholar, the article discusses the idea that “To reconcile oneself with oneself, one first has to fight oneself. One has to stand at a distance of oneself to find oneself”.

Palabras clave : Evaluation; Institutions Of Higher Education; Self-Regulation; Self-Ethics.
