Summary of "Cuáles son las FASES del Proceso de Mejora Continua"
This video, presented by Professor Santos Rivera, provides an overview of the five key phases of the Continuous Improvement Process (Proceso de Mejora Continua) in an educational context, particularly focused on schools. The goal is to understand and improve the socio-educational environment by systematically analyzing, planning, implementing, monitoring, and communicating improvements.
Main Ideas and Concepts:
- Continuous Improvement Process: A cyclical and collective effort to enhance educational conditions by critically analyzing the school’s reality and implementing targeted actions.
- Reading of Reality: The process begins with a critical, collective analysis of the school’s social, cultural, economic, geographic, and educational context to understand the conditions influencing school life.
- Collective Involvement: Emphasizes the importance of involving the entire school community (teachers, parents, students, community members, authorities) in all phases to ensure relevance and effectiveness.
- Dynamic and Reflective Process: The process allows for adjustments and reflections based on ongoing Monitoring and Evaluation to ensure continuous progress.
The Five Phases of the Continuous Improvement Process:
-
Socio-Educational Diagnosis of the School
- Conduct a critical reading of the school’s reality.
- Identify and prioritize problems and needs within academic, family, social, and community dimensions.
- Use dialogical methods (conversations, debates) alongside instruments to gather comprehensive information.
- Involve the entire school community to ensure diverse perspectives and accurate diagnosis.
-
Planning of the Continuous Improvement Program
- Develop a plan based on the diagnosis.
- Define clear objectives and goals targeting the prioritized problems.
- Plan specific collective actions involving the entire school community.
- Emphasize collaboration with parents, students, teachers, and community members.

-
Monitoring and Evaluation
- Continuously monitor the implementation of actions.
- Evaluate results against the objectives and goals set during planning.
- Reflect on findings to identify successes and areas needing improvement.
- Make necessary adjustments to improve effectiveness.
- Use spaces for technical advice and collective reflection to facilitate this phase.
-
Communication of Progress and Achievements
