The objective of the study was to investigate the cultural meanings of the Educational Model concept, through the exploration of cognitive dimensions and the cultural consensus in teachers at an Ecuadorian public university. Methodology: Qualitative, descriptive, exploratory design; framed in Cognitive Anthropology. Free listing techniques were applied, and lots were drawn in successive phases; the first of 20 teachers, and the second of 18 teachers each time; based on the Romney, Weller, and Batchelder Model. Results: Cultural consensus levels in a ratio of 5,213, and cultural competence average of 3,196, showed agreement within the group. Main, intermediate, and secondary components were identified. The Thematic hierarchization of the discourse allowed for grouping in an epistemological, curricular, and pedagogical model. Conclusions: The participants think homogeneously, the cultural meanings of the educational model were adjusted to consensus, without cultural variation among teachers.
