DISEÑO DE INSTRUMENTO PARA DETERMINAR EL PERFIL DE EGRESO DE LA CARRERA DE INGENIERÍA EN TECNOLOGÍAS DE LA INFORMACIÓN.

Abstract

The article presents the design of an instrument to determine the graduate profile from the Information Technology engineering program. The criteria used to develop this design was based on the research done by Herrera (2003), the Thurstone’s psychometric scale and the 8 competences and 39 learning cores defined in the Computing Curricula report from Information Technology. The aforementioned report was developed by the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers – Computer Society (IEEE–CS). As a result an instrument that measures 8 competences was obtained. Each competence has 2 learning results as minimum and 10 as maximum. The process for obtaining the instrument was based on a rigorous analysis and application of the methodological process by IT experts.
