Model for evaluation and monitoring of quality of Virtual Environments of Learning - AVA
E-learning, Quality Management, Virtual Environments of Learning.
The E-learning model displayed significant growth in the last years and, consequently, the current circumstances are favorable for the dissemination of courses and platforms. As such, this moment demands refinement of the mechanisms of course quality evaluation, and intuitive platforms of E-learning. In this scenario, AVASUS – the Virtual Learning Environment of the Brazilian Unified Health System - aims to improve the qualification of professionals and students, management and assistance in the Unified Health System (SUS), promoting integrated and accessible knowledge in healthcare education. The objective of this research is to develop a model for the evaluation and monitoring of quality, legitimacy and reciprocity in the Virtual Environments of Learning (AVA), and to implement it in AVASUS. Thus, the following steps will be taken: mapping of the process from content creation to the insertion of AVASUS courses; comparative analysis between the performance indicators used in AVASUS and the indicators established in the literature; identification of the main indicators for each step of the process; development of the model for evaluation and monitoring of quality, legitimacy and reciprocity in Virtual Environments of Learning (AVA); and implementation of the model in AVASUS. The execution of this research will have positive impacts, such as: optimization of quality control of Virtual Learning Environments (AVA), improvements in student learning, as well as a reduction of the academic gap on this topic in the literature.
