Sumario:Scientific and technological changes, low relevance of the educative programs and economic globalization, have lead to the resurgence of evaluation as an innovative tool. However, the initiatives show a lack of delimitation in their interpretative understanding, adopting diffuse conceptions of curriculum and its evaluation. Thus, the present study investigation was done to determine, through a content analysis using the classic method of Sanz (2004), how the curriculum models most usually applied in the country are sustained ontologically, teleologically and methodologically. The models are based on a quite uniform ontological and teleological concept of curriculum. On the other hand, methodologically they adopt three-dimensional models that include knowing, doing and being; incorporating elements of the multidirectional approach. In curricular evaluation, they demonstrate homogeneity in their ontology and teleology, but not in their methodology.
