Estudo de alguns indicadores de insucesso acadêmicos nos cursos de Química do CCA/UFPB.

Abstract

Student academic failure is a complex phenomenon, occurring from Basic Education to Higher Education and which over the years has been guided by university institutions. Evasion in universities, with the passage of time, has an increasingly ostensible reality in the scope of undergraduate education. However, although reaffirmed by alarming numbers, it has not been showing itself strongly enough to touch universities at its roots and provoke, more than a simple curiosity, for there to be an effective effort to understand and explain their possible causes and consequences. The academic failures of undergraduate students at universities have not been treated with rigor and a commitment necessary for their understanding. With this, this work has as general objective: to analyze the school failure rates of the Degree in Chemistry course at CCA / UFPB. For this study we conducted a descriptive research, seeking to identify which indicators prevail in Chemistry courses, based on data from the UFPB Graduation Observatory and the Reports issued by SIGAA. In the results, we find where evasion rates are, which curricular components have the highest failures and which are the disciplines that most contribute to evasion, thus having a total effectiveness in the results obtained.
