A website model for socialization of scientific knowledge in the UFG

Abstract

This paper sought to analyze how the Federal University of Goiás (UFG) disseminates the scientific knowledge generated by the Institution and then, present a Website Model that can be used by the University to promote the work of socializing its scientific production. The research was conducted in institutional documents, on the websites of the central and communication structures of the UFG and found that, although the Institution has set guidelines and develops actions and activities in favor of scientific diffusion, there are gaps in these processes, especially because the initiatives occur in an isolated and fragmented manner. Based on the analysis of experiences developed in other institutions of higher education and the observation of the internal environment of the UFG, it was concluded that the structuring of a Website for Science in the UFG can fulfill the function of gathering contents and articulating the various actors involved in the work of disseminating the results of scientific research done at the University, thus becoming an instrument capable of expanding, propagation and giving greater visibility to the knowledge produced in this Institution.
