Avaliação do desempenho dos alunos da primeira série do Colégio Técnico Industrial de Santa Maria

Abstract

To establish relationships, to find or to propose explanatory laws is the role of science itself. The Multivariate Analysis corresponds to a great number of methods and techniques that simultaneously use all the variables in the theoretical interpretation of the group of colleted data. The chosen method to work with the data is the analysis of repeated measures. The collected data comes from 61 students registered regularly in the first grade of the high school of Santa Maria's Industrial Technical School, and was analyzed by the Statistica 7.0 computer program, with the purpose of verifying how educational origin influences the grades, if the study performance among the genders is equivalent and also to investigate if the subjects, by the mean grades, would form groups. The results of this analysis show that there is no difference among the kinds of school, but between some subjects, and also that the girls get better grades than the boys no matter the school of origin or subject.
