Resumen

Cuando se emplean las encuestas de satisfacción de los estudiantes universitarios en la promoción y el reconocimiento de sus docentes, una queja habitual es el impacto que las valoraciones sesgadas tienen sobre la media aritmética (empleada como medida de efectividad). Esto es especialmente significativo cuando el número de estudiantes que responden la encuesta es reducido. En este trabajo se presenta una nueva metodología que tiene en cuenta las percepciones que los estudiantes tienen de sus compañeros. Se proponen dos estimadores diferentes de la credibilidad de las puntuaciones de los estudiantes basados en propiedades de centralidad de la red social. Este método se basa en la idea que en la educación universitaria presencial los estudiantes conocen frecuentemente cuáles de sus compañeros son competentes a la hora de evaluar el proceso de enseñanza y aprendizaje.
