Dirección científica educacional como agente de cambio para las instituciones educativas

i) introduction: The different problems experienced in the current educational context demand an "educational change", a reality that increases the strategic character of educational scientific management as a relevant conception for social sciences and education; ii) objective: To analyze the challenges faced by educational scientific management and its incidence in the promotion of "educational change"; iii) reflection: Scientific educational management presents scopes and challenges regarding the construction of a more just and educated school, based on the predominance of human values, through which "educational change" is foreseen, favored and valued in all its significance and transcendence. The management relationships sustained at the different levels of the educational institution must be characterized by adequate mechanisms of communication and participation in decision-making, which increase confidence in management, recognizing the limitations and tensions emanating from a dynamic and complex educational environment; iv) conclusions: Educational change, which implies the need for a transformation of the forms and contents developed in modern educational institutions, is a process consubstantial to educational scientific management and, consequently, must be visualized, understood and promoted by all its protagonists
