Desenvolvimento de uma plataforma web para análise da evasão de alunos no trabalho de conclusão de curso

Abstract

This study proposes the development of a web application designed to analyze student dropout rates in the undergraduate thesis at Universidade Federal do Ceará (UFC) - Quixadá. The methodology encompassed everything from researching definitions of dropout and measurement methods to eliciting requirements and developing the application. The results revealed that, although there is no significant trend of dropout in the undergraduate programs at UFC - Quixadá in this curricular activity, the failure rate in Final Course Project (TCC) II averages 49% between 2013.1 and 2023.1, a rate worthy of attention for future work. The application received positive acceptance, with 87.5% of users willing to recommend it to others interested in studies on dropout. Additionally, the majority of users who utilized the application endorsed the idea that the system provides sufficient resources for conducting analyses on dropout. Thus, it is concluded that the application has achieved its goal, offering a support tool for the analysis of dropout rates in the institution’s undergraduate thesis.
