What is a Good Teacher? The view of the Accounting Students at a Brazilian Federal University

The teacher is inserted in a society of multiple simultaneous demands, of great technological advance and of easy accessibility to information. In this way, the teacher is increasingly necessary, as he has an important role to mediate the abundant information that is offered, providing the connection between them so that they can then be transformed into knowledge. Considering the above, the present work aims to verify, under the perception of the academics of the Accounting Sciences course Fundação Universidade Federal de Rondônia – UNIR – Campus at Vilhena, what it means to be a good teacher, and whether its characteristics are being found in the professors who make up the course's faculty. Therefore, the study was carried out through the application of a questionnaire to a sample of 30 (thirty) students of the Accounting Sciences course at the Federal University – Campus at Vilhena.
