Quality Management in Distance Education
The Center as a Quality Reference
Ideological, organizational, administrative and human aspects in educational centers
Educational leadership is more than just a manager.
It is essential to share the vision towards which the center is heading with the educational community, oriented towards specific objectives and to give meaning to the functions and activities of each member of the management team.
Success Centers
The achievement of excellence in educational organizations makes it necessary to have personnel who exercise leadership capable of unifying and harmonizing the actions of personnel at the service of an educational project.
Family Participation and Educational Quality
The participation of families and communities is essential to ensure quality education for all.
“High expectations” for student achievement
It is the set of decisions that are taken from the State, to promote the exercise of this fundamental right.
"School policy" focused on the scope of achievements.
It is the art of governing to satisfy the collective needs for which an action plan must be drawn up and put into practice.
Types and approaches of Educational Quality
Quality of Availability:
This idea serves to underline the importance of having a culture of quality within educational institutions.
Conformity Quality:
The evaluation of learning as the process by which the degree to which students have achieved the learning objective is determined.
Design Quality:

Quality of Service to the User:
The quality of an educational service is linked to the satisfaction of the students as main users of the programs.
Quality: Value judgment on the educational reality
Value includes a Judgment:
Assessing the quality of education requires a global and comprehensive approach, in which the assessment of its different components is interrelated.
Quality as a value assigned to an educational process or value:
Quality is a value judgment on the educational reality, it is a value assigned to an educational process or product.
Observation from the concept of quality to educational reality:
Observation of quality in education entails the need to formulate actions to improve it with the implementation of tasks.
Quality as an inherent value:
Value includes a trial, if we say that an education is of quality, it in turn means that it might not be. It is a process assigned an educational value.
Quality and its Association with other Categories
The quality in the expansion of coverage:
It was a substantive key for the formation of the political and social fabric, for the preparation of human resources for economic growth with technology transfer and for the solution of other problems such as the alleged overcoming of the "marginality".
The quality and effectiveness of the system:
They are assigned to categories referring to the effectiveness of the school system, that is, to the results or achievements (“output”) that are achieved in the educational process. Some move towards the issue of the socioeconomic impact of the system, especially if it is related to the dimensions of technical and professional training that it develops.
Quality and pedagogical management:
Pedagogical analysis of the school system, taking two central categories: teacher/student and educational process. Therefore, it has a privileged insertion in the classroom, understood as the central axis of education.
Quality and administrative management:
The processes of transferring powers from the center to smaller geographical units (regions/provinces/municipalities) have different analysis approaches. Thus, the impossibility of the central level to sustain the financing, the technical support and the supervision required by the national systems; the use of resources that are potentially in smaller localities; a more equitable and selective distribution of resources.
