Resumo: | The aim of this work is to create a tool for assessing the quality of the information on postgraduate course websites at Spanish universities. An evaluation checklist was developed and applied to the 131 websites of postgraduate biomedical courses with quality accreditation in Spanish universities. The website evaluations were analysed with the application of clustering and principal component analysis techniques. While the average of all the sites is ‘acceptable’ there remain some clear weaknesses in aspects such as accessibility, lack of an internal search engine, or forms - for obtaining the views of current students and lecturers- and evaluation tests - for analysing the results. The tool developed provides a new instrument for evaluating postgraduate course websites. This evaluation enables website comparison, helps identify their strengths and weaknesses, and facilitates their improvement. |

Se ha diseñado y desarrollado una hoja deevaluación (checklist) que ha sido validada y aplicada a los 131 sitios web de Postgrado con Mención de Calidad de tema biosanitario de las universidades españolas. Se han analizado las valoraciones obtenidas por los sitios web y se han aplicado técnicas de clustering y de análisis de componentes principales. Los datos recogidos por la checklist permiten establecer un ranking según la calidad de la información de los sitios web. Además, se observa la existencia de tres grandes grupos de sitios web según sus características y prestaciones. La aplicación de las herramientas diseñadas indica que los sitios web alcanzan valores aceptables, si bien presentan algunos defectos comunes. No obstante, se constata la existencia de varios niveles de calidad de los mismos.Núcleo de Editoração - PUC-Campinas2012-03-25info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPeer-reviewed ArticleArtículo revisado por paresAvaliado pelos Paresapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/transinfo/article/view/6150Transinformação; Vol. 24 No. 1 (2012)Transinformação; Vol. 24 Núm. 1 (2012)Transinformação; v. 24 n. 1 (2012)2318-08890103-3786reponame:Transinformação (Online)instname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)instacron:PUC_CAMPporhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/transinfo/article/view/6150/3855Copyright (c) 2022 Transinformaçãohttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessOLVERA-LOBO, María-Dolores AGUILAR-SOTO, María RUIZ-DE-OSMA, Elvira 2024-07-30T18:15:18Zoai:ojs.periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br:article/6150Revistahttp://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/seer/index.php/transinfo/indexPRIhttps://old.scielo.br/oai/scielo-oai.phpsbi.nucleodeeditoracao@puc-campinas.edu.br||transinfo@puc-campinas.edu.br2318-08890103-3786opendoar:2024-07-30T18:15:18Transinformação (Online) - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)false |
