The aim of this paper is to present the analysis carried out on the impact of CCNE's “Central de Tutoria” on the development of UFSM students' learning, especially on the aprovation indexes. Data were collected from May to June 2019, with 752 attendances during this period in 367 students from 47 different courses at 6 teaching centers. It was found that in all the most sought after subjects in the "Central de Tutoria", the number of students approved was higher than those who failed, with a greater emphasis on the General Statistics discipline with an 88% pass rate. Overall, it was observed that the students who sought support are mostly in the first stages of the various courses. This data reinforces the objectives of the creation of the "Central de Tutoria", since it is in the early stages of the courses that the failure rate is high, contributing to dropout. In sum, student demand for this support is expected to increase and, based on the results of the data analysis presented in this work, it is believed that continuing the "Central de Tutoria" will positively contribute to the permanence rates as well as the success of our students.

Ethical Guidelines for Journal Publication
The Ciência e Natura journal is committed to ensuring ethics in publication and quality of articles.
Conformance to standards of ethical behavior is therefore expected of all parties involved: Authors, Editors, Reviewers, and the Publisher.
In particular,
Authors: Authors should present an objective discussion of the significance of research work as well as sufficient detail and references to permit others to replicate the experiments. Fraudulent or knowingly inaccurate statements constitute unethical behavior and are unacceptable. Review Articles should also be objective, comprehensive, and accurate accounts of the state of the art. The Authors should ensure that their work is entirely original works, and if the work and/or words of others have been used, this has been appropriately acknowledged. Plagiarism in all its forms constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable. Submitting the same manuscript to more than one journal concurrently constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable. Authors should not submit articles describing essentially the same research to more than one journal. The corresponding Author should ensure that there is a full consensus of all Co-authors in approving the final version of the paper and its submission for publication.
Editors: Editors should evaluate manuscripts exclusively on the basis of their academic merit. An Editor must not use unpublished information in the editor's own research without the express written consent of the Author. Editors should take reasonable responsive measures when ethical complaints have been presented concerning a submitted manuscript or published paper.
Reviewers: Any manuscripts received for review must be treated as confidential documents. Privileged information or ideas obtained through peer review must be kept confidential and not used for personal advantage. Reviewers should be conducted objectively, and observations should be formulated clearly with supporting arguments, so that Authors can use them for improving the paper. Any selected Reviewer who feels unqualified to review the research reported in a manuscript or knows that its prompt review will be impossible should notify the Editor and excuse himself from the review process. Reviewers should not consider manuscripts in which they have conflicts of interest resulting from competitive, collaborative, or other relationships or connections with any of the authors, companies, or institutions connected to the papers.
