Abstract

It is shown that, elevating the demand in the process of the professional's formation, particularly in the evaluation system, the positive results far from diminishing, increase. They have been considered the results of the last four years (2011-2015) of the first year of engineering electric career. The results, obtained in evaluations considered with middle levels of complexity, compared with others of high levels of complexity, endorse the initial statement. To interpret the statistical of these results was used the index of difficulty defined by Doran. Approaches are discussed to increase gradually the level demand in the evaluations. This work is done for professors that teach general physics in the engineering careers.
