    Diseño y Validación de un Instrumento para Evaluar el Perfil Competencial Innovador del Docente Universitario
    (REICE. Revista Iberoamericana sobre Calidad, Eficacia y Cambio en Educación, 2022) Fernández Cruz, Francisco José; Rodríguez-Legendre, Fidel
    Existen escasas investigaciones que traten de definir, diseñar propuestas metodológicas y validar herramientas para el estudio del perfil competencial innovador del docente universitario. El presente trabajo tiene como objetivo preparar un cuestionario técnica y teóricamente sólido para evaluarlo, que incluyera las características técnicas necesarias para cualquier buen instrumento de medición, especialmente la validación del constructo. En este sentido, después de diseñar y desarrollar la validez de contenido a través de juicio de expertos, se aplicó a 1.404 profesores de universidades de Bolivia, España y México. Posteriormente se analizó su fiabilidad y la validez de constructo a través de Modelos de Ecuaciones Estructurales. Los resultados obtenidos permiten encontrar una fiabilidad excelente, tanto en el cuestionario total como en sus dimensiones (alfa de Cronbach=0,982) y un AFE (oblicua/Promax) de 9 factores consistentes, unipolares y robustos, con un 70,265% de varianza total explicada. Finalmente, el AFC dio un modelo de medición final bastante parsimonioso y altamente satisfactorio (CFI=0,910; RMSEA=0,053; Hoelter=305; PRATIO=0,937). En conclusión, se puede afirmar que se ha contribuido al campo de la ciencia con un cuestionario válido y fiable para medir el perfil competencial innovador del docente universitario.

    Factors associated with the impact of implementing quality management systems at schools: a multilevel analysis
    (Total Quality Management & Business Excellence, 2018) Rodríguez Mantilla, Jesús Miguel; Fernández Cruz, Francisco José; Fernández Díaz, María Josefa
    The aim of this study was to analyse the simultaneous effect of a set of predictors of the impact perceived by teachers and managers of implementing two Quality Management Systems (QMS): European Foundation for Quality Management (EFQM) and ISO:9001 STANDARDS. A sample of 2869 subjects from 114 Spanish schools has been taken, to which a 91-item questionnaire has been applied to assess the perceived impact that the implementation of QMS has had on the schools. Data analysis was carried out using hierarchical-linear modelling. Results show a high level of impact in Management and Planning system and medium impact in Communication, the Learning Process and External Relations. The main predictors of the impact are the position and years of service at the school (on Level 1 -Subject-) and ownership, school size and QMS implemented (on Level 2 -Schools-), finding that the impact perceived in schools with EFQM was higher. The specialised literature shows the scarcity of studies on the impact that QMS have on organisations, especially in the education sector. Thus, this study provides conclusions to the scientific and professional community with objective evidence of predictors of the impact perceived by teachers and managers of implementing QMS in schools.

    Comparative analysis between management team and teachers on the impact of ISO 9001 standards in educational centres
    (International Journal of Quality and Service Sciences, 2019) Rodríguez Mantilla, Jesús Miguel; Fernández Cruz, Francisco José; Fernández Díaz, María Josefa
    Purpose The purpose of this paper is to analyse and compare the impact of implementation of ISO 9001:2008 Standards perceived by Management Teams and Teachers in schools in four autonomous communities in Spain. Design/methodology/approach To assess this impact, the authors used an evaluation instrument made up of 93 items assessing seven major dimensions, whose reliability has been excellent for the full scale (Cronbach’s α = 0.987) and dimensions (α > 0.93). The authors conducted descriptive and differential analyses (ANOVA and t-test for independent samples) of the assessments by professional position (managers and teachers) and other variables (size and type of school, years of implantation, etc.). A factorial analysis of variance was conducted to analyse the interaction effect between these variables in each of the evaluated dimensions. Findings The most significant results show a high impact on the dimension management, medium on communication, learning process and external relations and low impact on climate, support and recognition and satisfaction. Likewise, the authors found that members of the Management Teams valued the impact that ISO 9001:2008 Standards have had on all dimensions at a higher level, except for external relations, where no significant differences between Teachers and Management Team members were found. Practical implications The study makes it possible to conclude that in general terms, the members of the Management Team of the schools perceive a higher impact of the implementation of ISO 9001:2008 Standards than teacher do in the different dimensions evaluated. Originality/value The specialised literature shows the lack of studies related to the impact that the implementation of quality management systems has on organisations. Specifically, this study provides conclusions to the scientific and professional community with objective evidence of the impact ISO 9001:2008 implementation has had on schools, through an indirect system of perceptions of the education community of the changes, which according to them had taken place as a result of implementation. Thus, this study contributes to the development of a new body of knowledge by evaluating this impact.

    Assessing the impact of ISO: 9001 implementation on school teaching and learning processes
    (Quality Assurance in Education, 2019) Fernández Cruz, Francisco José; Rodríguez Mantilla, Jesús Miguel; Fernández Díaz, María Josefa
    Purpose A growing number of schools are now implementing quality management systems (QMS). As a result, studies are being conducted to assess the educational benefits of these systems and their capacity to identify areas for improvement in school processes and performance. The purpose the present study is to assess the impact of ISO:9001 implementation on teaching-learning processes in the classroom, and in schools with at least three years’ experience of applying this standard. Design/methodology/approach To this end, a questionnaire was administered to a final sample of 2,185 subjects from 80 pre-school, primary and secondary education schools in the regions of Madrid, Castile and León, Andalusia and Valencia (Spain). Findings The results show that ISO:9001 implementation yielded a higher than average impact on teaching-learning processes. Specifically, improvements were observed in the subdomains of tutorials, evaluation and classroom teaching methodologies as a result of implementing this QMS. Originality/value This impact was higher in state-subsidized private schools in Valencia and Andalusia with over nine years’ experience of ISO:9001 in schools with internal funding plans and in those with fewer than 29 teachers on the staff.

    Impact of the application of ISO 9001 standards on the climate and satisfaction of the members of a school
    (International Journal of Educational Management, 2020) Fernández Cruz, Francisco José; Rodríguez Mantilla, Jesús Miguel; Fernández Díaz, María Josefa
    Purpose Recently, the application of quality management systems (QMS) in educational institutions has become widespread, in an effort to improve diverse processes and results in schools. However, there are very few studies that enable us to confirm whether these QMS bring true changes that are sustainable over time and lead to improvements in these institutions. Design/methodology/approach This study thus aims to assess the impact of the implementation of ISO:9001 standards on school climate and on the satisfaction of the members of the educational community at 80 Spanish preschools, primary and secondary schools in different autonomous communities. Findings The analyses performed show conclusive results regarding the impact of ISO:9001 standards on teachers' involvement in improving the school's climate, conflict resolution by the management team and in families' involvement and satisfaction with the school. However, no apparent evidence was found of the impact on relations among teachers, conflict resolution among staff members and the perception of satisfaction by the teachers themselves. Research limitations/implications We must bear in mind that the results and conclusions obtained are based on the instrument developed for this study, where it has been the members of the schools themselves who have assessed the changes they have perceived or that have taken place. However, due to the limitation of the instrument, it could be complemented in future research with external evaluations that could complement the results obtained in the present study. Originality/value Furthermore, greater impact of the ISO standards was identified in schools from certain regions (Valencia and Andalusia), in state-assisted private schools, in smaller schools and in institutions which have been implementing the QMS for longer periods of time. The management team also perceived a greater improvement in climate than did teachers.

    Do ISO:9001 standards and EFQM model differ in their impact on the external relations and communication system at schools?
    (Evaluation and Program Planning, 2020) Rodríguez Mantilla, Jesús Miguel; Martínez Zarzuelo, Angélica; Fernández Cruz, Francisco José
    Implementation of Quality Management Systems (QMS) has increased greatly in recent years at a wide variety of institutions. The main purpose of this work is to evaluate and compare the impact of having implemented ISO:9001 standards and the EFQM model on the communication system and external relations at schools. This was done by applying a validated evaluation instrument to 2901 subjects of 116 schools in 4 Spanish Autonomous Communities. The results show that the QMS have a medium-high level of impact on the communication system and a moderate level on the external relations dimension. Furthermore, schools with EFQM feature significantly higher levels of impact on the dimensions studied than schools implementing ISO standards. Significant differences were found in the levels of impact as a function of the number of years of implementation and the type of funding received, among other variables. In addition, an interaction effect was found between the type and size of schools in regard to their external relations.
