Teachers competencies for on-line education
Abstract
“On-line teaching competencies” is a topic that requires special attention within the Mexican educational system where new alternatives are required; these alternatives should overtake the limitations of time and space that most people have and provide them with access to education. This is a quantitative research based on a theoretical framework for on-line teaching which focuses on the analysis of the on-line competencies demonstrated by teachers with high-level performance in six Mexican Public Universities. The study is conducted from the students’ perspectives and the comparison is based on the opinion from the managers of the programs, as well as the educational framework of each institution. The results of this research present on-line teaching having a high-level of competence in the six Public Mexican Universities where this study was carried out; students’ answers allowed to identify a homogeneous on-line teacher’s profile within the national educational context. Nevertheless, there are areas that can be improved in order to consolidate on-line education as a high-quality alternative for Mexican higher education.
