Qualidade de serviço, educação continuada, ensino superior, mbientes virtuais de aprendizagemResumo
O objetivo deste estudo é identificar os fatores que influenciam a qualidade de serviço percebida para o ensino superior continuado em ambientes virtuais de aprendizagem. Para tanto, foi realizado um estudo quantitativo descritivo, com uma amostra de 4.735 estudantes de cursos superiores de ensino superior, aos quais foi aplicado um questionário online. O instrumento foi construído considerando os seguintes fatores: habilidades de ensino, atitudes e comportamento dos professores, equipe administrativa e de apoio, plataforma de navegação, planos de estudo e organização de cursos para educação continuada. Os resultados mostram que a escala de qualidade de serviço percebida para a educação virtual na perspectiva dos estudantes é uma construção bidimensional. O primeiro fator inclui suporte administrativo, conteúdo, aspectos educacionais e a interface, que são facilitadores da educação virtual. O segundo fator envolve as habilidades de ensino necessárias para orientar um curso de aprendizado on-line. Os achados contribuem para as decisões na gestão e desenvolvimento da aprendizagem online contínua, cuja demanda crescente justifica uma revisão das formas de satisfação dos usuários, o que nos permite enxergar essa modalidade de aprendizagem com uma percepção mais positiva.
