Governança eletrônica nas instituições de ensino superior públicas de Alagoas

Abstract

This article aimed to analyze electronic governance in public Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) in Alagoas, particularly regarding the level of publicizing the information available on their websites. The electronic portals of the Federal University of Alagoas (Ufal) were analyzed; the Federal Institute of Alagoas (Ifal); from the University of the State of Alagoas (Uneal) and from the University of Health Sciences (Uncisal) regarding the electronic governance of their information made available to the public, using the methodology of Biderman and Puttomatti (2011), in which scores are established and a ranking among HEIs. The research results showed that federal HEIs have a higher level of electronic governance: Ufal has 95.80%, followed by Ifal, which has 86.70%, while state HEIs have a lower score in the analyzed index, which demonstrates the need to improve the detailing and availability of information on their websites, so that civil society can monitor the use of resources more effectively.
