Abstract :
Nowadays in curricula of university teachers doesn´t appear anything related with the way to do the classes or the efficiency of the methods used with the students. We must have to take into account that a teacher is not only defined by his knowledge about a specific field but he is defined also by the way to pass it. For that reason we propose the inclusion inside of the teacher curricula of a section expressly dedicated to the student´s opinion about the execution of his classes. This information is obtained through surveys and it will be displayed graphically with the goal of localizing the aspects which the teacher must improve and of maintaining an historic register that helps to check the progression. In addition, it will serve to the competent educational organisms to know the different skills of their employees.
