Un sistema de suporte a la decisión para metaevaluación y sus consecuencias: nueva abordaje y estudio de caso realizado en Brasil. Ensaio: aval. pol. públ. educ.

This paper presents a new methodology for metaevaluation that makes use of fuzzy sets and fuzzy logic. It is composed of a data collection instrument and of a hierarchical fuzzy inference system. The advantages of the proposed methodology are: (i) the instrument, which allows intermediate answers; (ii) the inference process ability to adapt to specific needs; and (iii) transparency, through the use of linguistic rules that facilitate both the understanding and the discussion of the whole process. The rules are based on guidelines established by the Joint Committee on Standards for Educational Evaluation (1994) and also represent the view of experts. The system can provide support to evaluators that may lack experience in meta-evaluation. A case study is presented as a validation of the proposed methodology.
