GONZALEZ CASTRO, Claudia  and  CRUZAT ARRIAGADA, Marcela. Educational Innovation: the experience of pedagogical careers at the University Of Los Lagos Chile. Educación [online]. 2019, vol.28, n.55, pp.103-122. ISSN 1019-9403.  http://dx.doi.org/10.18800/educacion.201902.005.

Educational innovation is a relevant aim for higher education institutions, especially for teacher training institutions, due to the impact on the educational system of a country. This study of educational innovation state, among their pedagogical careers, was made by Universidad de Los Lagos, regional university in the chilean city of Osorno. Through the analysis of academics interviews and the institutional documents review, it was concluded there are difficulties defining the innovation concept; that innovation in pedagogical careers starts with curricular innovation driven by the institutional model on competences-based education; and that the experiences of teaching innovation are, mainly, silent innovations.

Keywords : Educational innovation; Higher education; teacher training.
