Summary
This study analyzed a model for educational effectiveness, which after controlling for socioeconomic factors, determined the benefit that institutions of the subsystem of Technological Universities provide their students. This is a longitudinal multilevel study with a sample of 8,522 students from 38 universities in 19 states who took the national admissions exam for higher education (EXANI-II) and the exam for technical higher education (CENEVAL) during 2000-2006. The model identifies the efficacy of the institutions and facilitates the construction of educational quality indicators.
