Registration now open for the webinar "Reflections on new international trends in teaching staff assessment: What’s next?”
The aim of the webinar, set to take place on 14 December at 4 pm, is to reflect on new approaches to research assessment.
The changes that have recently taken place in the world of research assessment make it necessary to reflect on teaching staff assessment methodologies able to respond to the multidimensional approaches international trends are leaning towards.
This year marks ten years since the San Francisco Declaration, which AQU Catalunya signed in 2020, and the winds of change are now blowing from Europe. Last July an agreement on assessment reform was published (CoARA), as a result of a long process of reflection and dialogue under the auspices of the European Commission. Here in Spain, the draft Organic Law on the University System (LOSU), currently in the parliamentary debate phase, incorporates elements to recognise open science.
In order to reflect on these new approaches to research assessment, AQU Catalunya has organised the webinar "Reflections on new international trends in teaching staff assessment: What’s next?”, which will be structured around two presentations.
Christen Lutz, professor at University College Utrecht, will give the presentation "The Triple model of Utrecht University. What we have learned and next steps" (in English).
Enrique Orduña, professor at the Universitat Politècnica de València; Carmen Pérez, professor at the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid; and Núria Bautista, professor at the Universidad Complutense de Madrid, will give the presentation "Research assessment: What’s next?" (in Spanish).
Also present will be Josep M. Garrell, professor at Ramon Llull University and member of the Board of the European University Association, who will speak about the context of the new trends in teaching staff assessment, and José Saturnino Martínez, director of the Canarian Agency for Quality Assessment and Accreditation (ACCUEE). The director of AQU Catalunya, Jaume Valls, will give a welcome address and close the webinar.
