Abstract

One of the most importants and critical stages of the educational process in PostGraduate Courses in Federal Education Institutions refers to the Program’s Evaluation. In this stage, the obtained results are confronted with indicators based on objectives and goals of strategic educational development, making possible to verify the courses quality and the action’s implementation necessity to correct directions or consolidate already applied pratices, seeking the countinuous courses improvement in this segment. In this context, this work aims to establish a data integration model with specification and implementation of a Self Assessment System for Postgraduate Courses. The resulting system is modularized into five components that add functionality that aim to support decision making by gathering data from multiple sources and minimizing effort and cost, in addition to enabling the recording of temporal informations with definition and obtaining automatic creation of relevant indicators to control and monitor the courses quality.
