CARRERAS, Josep. Evaluation of teaching and faculty promotion (III). University Spanish legislation (a): from the Law of Ordination of the Spanish University (1943) to the Law of University Reformation (1983). Educ. méd. [online]. 2003, vol.6, n.1, pp.9-31. ISSN 1575-1813.

During the period of Franco’s dictatorship the Spanish university was governed successively by three laws: the Law of Ordination of the Spanish University of 1943, the Law on the Structure of the University Faculties and their Professors of 1965, and the General Law of Education of 1970. The procedures for the selection of the professors determined by these laws possessed elements that allowed to evaluate certain aspects of the educational quality of the candidates. But during the whole period of validity of the same ones there were no habitual and widespread practices of evaluation of university teaching, due so much to the little propensity from the university professors to be evaluated as to the persistence of the system of opposition or of competition-opposition to accede with permanent character to the educational position. During the first years of the democratic transition they were carried out diverse attempts to promulgate a law that adapted the university structures and functions to the new socio-political reality of the country. But all they failed for lack of enough parliamentary support, until in 1983 the socialist government promulgated the Law of University Reformation. This law, that governed the life of the Spanish university during almost twenty years, opened new perspectives of teaching evaluation for the selection and promotion of the professors.
