Resumen

El Pensamiento Crítico (PC) se considera una competencia fundamental en la educación del siglo XXI debido a sus beneficios en los ámbitos académicos, personales, profesionales y sociales. Sin embargo, la evaluación del PC en estudiantes universitarios enfrenta desafíos en la conceptualización, diseño, criterios de enseñanza y evaluación, así como en el análisis de datos. Este artículo presenta pautas basadas en investigación para facilitar la promoción y evaluación efectiva del PC en el campo de las Ciencias de la Actividad Física y del Deporte. Las pautas abarcan cuatro fases: definición del constructo, elección o diseño de herramientas de evaluación, diseño de investigación y recopilación de datos, e interpretación de resultados. Se enfatiza la importancia de establecer objetivos de evaluación claros, seleccionar o crear herramientas de evaluación adecuadas, aplicar la evaluación de manera sistemática, brindar retroalimentación y monitorear el proceso. Además, se destaca la relevancia de integrar la evaluación del PC como parte esencial del proceso de enseñanza y aprendizaje. La implementación de estas pautas promoverá una evaluación más eficiente y efectiva del PC, fomentando el desarrollo de competencias críticas en los estudiantes universitarios y fortaleciendo la cultura físico-deportiva en general. Mediante la adopción de estas recomendaciones, se espera elevar la calidad educativa y potenciar el desarrollo integral de los estudiantes, preparándolos para enfrentar los desafíos actuales y futuros con éxito.
