An andragogical proposal to improve teaching skills at the university level

The development of andragogy training enhances the competencies of university teachers. This study aimed to propose a training program in andragogy to improve teaching effectiveness at the university level. Using a quantitative methodology within a non-experimental design, the research included a sample of 193 teachers, using surveys and questionnaires as instruments. The results revealed that, in general, teaching competencies were at a moderate level, with particular emphasis on strategies that foster intrinsic motivation and opportunities for reflection, self-assessment, and evaluation of adult learners' motivation levels. Generally, the results highlight that andragogy training strengthens teaching competencies and enriches classroom interaction.

Abstract

The development of andragogy training enhances the competencies of university teachers. This study aimed to propose a training program in andragogy to improve teaching effectiveness at the university level. Using a quantitative methodology within a non-experimental design, the research included a sample of 193 teachers, using surveys and questionnaires as instruments. The results revealed that, in general, teaching competencies were at a moderate level, with particular emphasis on strategies that foster intrinsic motivation and opportunities for reflection, self-assessment, and evaluation of adult learners' motivation levels. Generally, the results highlight that andragogy training strengthens teaching competencies and enriches classroom interaction.
