The evaluation of learning is not restricted to the quantitative measurement of student learning. Highlights some factors that can be analyzed during the teaching process: the influence of the teacher, the school environment, the course curriculum; evaluative metrics, among others. These factors include the structure of the course curriculum, as the object of study of this research. Thus, this study aims to analyze the curriculum of an undergraduate course in blended mode. In this context, a qualitative study from a quantitative analysis is proposed to identify the possible relationship between the disciplines of a course and infer how the curriculum for a course can influence the evaluation parameters. Results show the effectiveness of the application of multivariate statistical techniques in the analysis and understanding of educational processes.
In this paper, we present the implementation of a computational tool that provides a report of teaching indicators based on the evaluating of teaching effectiveness methodology. This tool was developed in Matlab ® platform in order to provide to its handler faster data processing and the possibility of working with n-dimensional data structures. The development of a reporting tool that provides indicators of education is fundamental to aid the decision-making by the courses' managers. The results indicate the feasibility of using the tool in data related to online courses.
Resumo.Neste artigo, apresenta-se a implementação de uma ferramenta computacional que fornece um relatório de indicadores de ensino com base na metodologia de avaliação da efetividade do ensino. Esta ferramenta foi desenvolvida na plataforma Matlab ® com o intuito de fornecer, ao seu manipulador, um rápido processamento dos dados e a possibilidade de trabalhar com estruturas de dados n-dimensionais. O desenvolvimento de uma ferramenta que forneça relatórios de indicadores de ensino é fundamental para o auxílio à tomada de decisão por parte dos gestores dos cursos. Os resultados apontam para a viabilidade da utilização desta ferramenta em dados relacionados a cursos semipresenciais.
