Abstract

The purpose of a systematic review of the literature on the processes of assessing teachers' information literacy at the university level is to identify studies, trends, instruments, procedures or relevant findings in the area. On the other hand, it is intended to generate a process of reflection that allows us to turn our gaze towards the teacher himself, since most of the instruments and procedures for the evaluation of informational skills are oriented towards the students. There are countless instruments to measure informational competence, such as CAUL in informational skills, IL-humass questionnaire SAILS to mention a few (Pisté Beltrán, 2015), most of these instruments are constructed in a generic way, and are usually applied in students, other studies focus on teachers in training, who are still students; analysis and instruments that can be used specifically in teachers are required, preferably not self-perceptive, even that can differentiate the level of competence for the different types of teachers that exist in universities. This review seeks to establish the state of the art regarding evaluation processes focused on university teachers within the online information systems Web of Science and Scopus until July 2022. There is a lack of studies that focus specifically on the evaluation of teachers' informational competence and the performance approach is almost absent; the studies focus primarily on self-perceptive views.
