In early 2020, when the coronavirus pandemic began to affect every area of society, the situation in Brazil was no different from that of other countries. Covid-19 brought the implementa- tion of social isolation measures and led to readjustments in living and working conditions. In turn, this led to readjustments in the conditions of employees and users of public services who wished to access those services. In education, it also created new social inequalities resulting from teachers and students’ lack of access to the technologies, tools and programmes they needed. Other issues detected were health and financial problems due to unemployment as well as a lack of policies aimed at reducing the number of working hours. In view of this, the Federal University of Pernambuco (UFPE), the Federal University of Paraíba (UFPB) and the University of Pernambuco (UPE), all of which are located in the northeast of Brazil, carried out an inter-institutional study of factors that influenced the participation of undergraduate students in online classes during the period of social isolation. The aim of this article is to present the partial results from this study in relation to stu- dent profile and the infrastructure available to those students to aid their participation in the online classes taught on their respective degree programmes.

Rev. Adm. Pública

Resumo A evasão no ensino superior é uma questão de interesse global e, para reduzi-la, diversas políticas foram criadas visando ao incentivo da permanência de alunos nas universidades. Este artigo objetivou identificar padrões de avaliação de políticas de permanência estudantil na educação superior mediante uma revisão sistemática da literatura, com base em 39 documentos selecionados nas bases Scopus, Sage Journals, Web of Science, Google Acadêmico e Periódicos Capes. Em relação às formas de avaliação, os resultados indicaram a predominância de análises dos efeitos das políticas sobre a evasão, mas também havia estudos que avaliaram o desempenho e o tempo até a diplomação dos alunos. As pesquisas foram majoritariamente aplicadas em ambientes universitários de natureza pública, o que indica a escassez de produções científicas sobre instituições de ensino privadas. Quanto aos formatos das políticas de permanência, a literatura apontou quatro espécies de auxílio com naturezas distintas: financeiro, assistencial, baseado em mérito acadêmico e por critérios de necessidade/vulnerabilidade dos estudantes. Com a pesquisa, propôs-se uma avaliação das políticas de permanência em formato tríplice, considerando a permanência, o desempenho e o tempo até a diplomação. Entre as lacunas da literatura, evidenciaram-se os estudos comparativos de diferentes políticas.

Student retention policies in higher education: reflections from a literature review for the Brazilian context

Rev. Adm. Pública

Dropout in higher education is a matter of global interest, and several policies were created to encourage students to stay in universities. This article aimed to identify patterns of evaluation of student retention policies in higher education through a systematic literature review, selecting 39 documents from Scopus, Sage Journals, Web of Science, Google academic, and CAPES Periodicals. Regarding evaluation forms, the results indicated the predominance of analyses on the effects of policies on dropout. However, some studies evaluated students’ performance and time to graduation. Research works were mostly applied in public university environments, which indicates a scarcity of scientific production about private educational institutions. As for the formats of permanence policies, the literature pointed out four types of aid with different natures: financial, assistance, based on academic merit, and by criteria of students’ need/vulnerability. Based on the research, it was proposed that the evaluation of permanence policies should be threefold, considering permanence, performance, and time until graduation. Among the gaps in the literature, comparative studies between the types of policies were highlighted.
