FAVERO, Altair Alberto; CONSALTER, Evandro  and  TONIETO, Carina. THE EVALUATION OF POSTGRADUATE AND ITS RELATIONSHIP WITH CIENTIFIC PRODUCTION: DILEMS BETWEEN QUALITY AND QUANTITY. Eccos Rev. Cient. [online]. 2019, n.51, e14508.  Epub Jan 29, 2024. ISSN 1983-9278.  https://doi.org/10.5585/eccos.n51.14508.

This text is the result of qualitative research and is developed from the triangulation of bibliographic and documentary sources. The analytical method is used to establish a critical and reflexive look at the data. The objective is to answer the following question: How is postgraduate evaluation influenced and impacted by processes and indicators external to the university? The text is structured in three sections. In the first part, we discuss how academic productivism has impacted the management and internal organization of postgraduate programs. In the second section, we seek to identify how this productivist logic has fostered the market for so-called “predatory magazines”, which take advantage of this need to publish researchers to profit and establish a “publishing market”. Finally, we discuss the need for a balance between quality and quantity in order to think about and reinforce the social relevance of research and the consolidation of postgraduate evaluation policies that can guarantee this equity necessary for the full exercise of researchers. We conclude that the evaluation is an important step for the improvement of the postgraduate, however, subjected to the dictates of managerialism, productivity and performativity produces harmful effects on research, teachers / researchers and training processes.
