Estudo comparado da ação gestora na apropriação dos resultados do proalfa: análise de dois casos de sucesso em Governador Valadares

Abstract

This research aims to delineate a management situation where managers are facilitators of the process of appropriation of the results of PROALFA, allowing the elementary teacher to make use of them literacy in their teaching. To do this by studying two cases of successful management, which are formed by good results in this evaluation, we found that this facilitation process has occurred. We performed a comparative analysis between two administrations of public schools, located in Governador Valadares city. Have similar socioeconomic profiles, but different characteristics in relation to school management, aiming to observe the different actions of managers affect the result. I varied with respect to the level of education treated in order to observe whether the interfering factor in the management results. We investigated how to perform management of educational outcomes through the dissemination of the results PROALFA ownership among the elementary teachers. I used as methodology the semi-structured interview from a basic script, yet flexible, which could be adapted according to the needs that arose during the investigation. My methodological strategy was to compare the two schools selected by identifying the relationship between different administrations and different forms of appropriation of the external evaluation, making a parallel with the standards and competencies of the principal (MINAS, 2010) and the skills of the manager in management dimension of educational outcomes (Luck, 2009). Realized, though, documentary analysis of the results of PROALFA between the years 2008 and 2010; educational intervention plan produced from the results, agendas and minutes of meetings. The analysis of survey data indicated that the managers of two teaching units, recognize that the assessments reflect the diagnosis of external reality in terms of school performance, and that is paramount to appropriate these results, allowing access to other professionals, understand and use these data to guide the ongoing process of improving teaching through systematic pedagogical interventions and built collectively. Proved capable of mobilizing both supervisors and teachers in terms of educational objectives were established for the school. The use of these results proved to be efficient, especially as a mechanism for systematic monitoring of student learning. I noticed also that the public policy of large-scale evaluation impacts the school environment, contributing to the construction of pedagogical projects feasible and consistent with the context of educational institutions. I present a proposal at the end of training managers in order to develop pedagogical skills, able to seek alternatives for developing a better appropriation of the results of PROALFA.
