MOROSINI, MARILIA COSTA et al. QUALITY OF HIGHER EDUCATION AND THE COMPLEX EXERCISE OF PROPOSING INDICATORS. Rev. Bras. Educ. [online]. 2016, vol.21, n.64, pp.13-37. ISSN 1809-449X.  https://doi.org/10.1590/S1413-24782016216402.

This article provides reflections on the quality of higher education carried out on the Observatory of Higher Education Project, developed by the South Brazilian Network of Researchers in Higher Education – RIES/ CAPES/INEP. The methodology, involving different quanti-qualitative procedures, points to the complexity of proposing evaluation indicators which assume university’s contextualized and temporal character and take multireferentiality as a value. Data review is accompanied by the project’s general theoretical interpretation and by specific interpretations of axes relating the quality of higher education to themes of internationalization, administration, undergraduate teaching, innovation, professional teacher training and development. Thus, indicators are constructed aiding the perception of quality and contributions offered.
