This work presents a proposal for a model of teaching evaluation in higher education.

It is part of a contextual analysis of the European guidelines on quality in higher education, to introduce the reforms in the Portuguese university evaluation system and specifically in the evaluation of university teaching.

We propose a flexible model, adjustable to the context and mission of each institution of higher education, allowing an effective evaluation of teachers, promoting the development of competent professionals and developing a culture of collaboration among teachers, contributing to the quality improvement of teaching.

Faculty assessment, higher education, quality.
