Transference to practice
One of the implications derived from this study for educational administration implies the need for a shared vision in regards to what is understood as quality evaluation. In this sense, the standards provide a base for professional consensus and a group of principles and criteria to advance in the subject. From a didactic standpoint, the improvement of quality evaluation systems is more feasible through the understanding of the perception of the students about the assessment practices of the educational institution.
