MARCHELLI, Paulo Sérgio. O Sistema de Avaliação Externa dos Padrões de Qualidade da Educação Superior no Brasil: considerações sobre os indicadores. Est. Aval. Educ. [online]. 2007, vol.18, n.37, pp.189-216. ISSN 0103-6831.
This paper is about the National Evaluation System of Higher Education - Sinaes - as it is called in Brazil. It analyzes conceptual lines of direction and the methodological instrument used for external evaluation. The method of analysis is based on comparisons between the system adopted in Brazil and other countries whose standards of quality in higher education are internationally recognized. The matrix structure of the dimensions for external evaluation of the National Evaluation System of Higher Education - Sinaes - is examined, highlighting details of the criteria used for giving grades to the Teaching Staff’s Titles, Working Hours and Publications indicators. As its major conclusion, the study lists the reasons why the above criteria need to be reconsidered by pointing out their flaws and suggesting ways for their improvement.
