Quality, efficiency and teacher assessment: a new flexible pedagogy?

Abstract

 This article will discussed issues such as: quality, efficiency and teacher assessment. These themes are frequent in education and they relate to the restructuring of the world of contemporary work. Over the 1970s, the metamorphosis in the world of work and education correspond to the continuum process of changes triggered in the Central capitalist countries. In this context, toyotism emerged as flexible organization whose productive efficiency is based on polyvalence required in the reeducation of workers in order to perform the work. In addition, when it extrapolates the manufacturing universe, the Toyota management as a mechanism of social reproduction imposes itself in a new social logic, for example: the proposal of teachers training through educational reforms. In this sense, we are interested in analyzing the intrinsic relationship between the toyotism organizational protocol, namely: Quality Control Cireles (QCC). Thus, there’s also to consider the integration – total quality, team-work, quality and teacher assessment and professionalization. This way, it will be possible detect the influence of toyotism logic in the current teacher training.
