ZUNIGA GASPAR, Claudia  y  CORTINA MORFIN, José Luis. Educational Value and Feasibility of the Evaluation of the Quality of Mathematics Teaching in Mexico’s Elementary Education. RMIE [online]. 2017, vol.22, n.74, pp.923-948. ISSN 1405-6666.

This study reports on the results of research aimed at exploring the usefulness and feasibility of evaluating the teaching of mathematics in Mexican elementary schools. An evaluation was made of forty class sessions in twenty classrooms in three schools in Mexico City. The instrument used was the Instructional Quality Assessment. The results show that this type of evaluations has great potential in determining the design of actions in educational improvement, at both the systemic and specific school level. The conclusion is that they are feasible, since their educational value would compensate for the significant costs and limitations that are implicit in their use.
