Enem: uma análise retrospectiva e prospectiva dos riscos associados em ser mais que uma avaliação diagnóstica

Abstract

This work was developed in the Professional Master in Management and Education Evaluation (PPGP) of the Center for Public Policy and Education Evaluation of the Federal University of Juiz de Fora (CAEd / UFJF). The management case discusses the implementation of Enem (High School Brazilian Test), which today is considered the best known exam in large scale in Brazil and certainly the largest test application logistics system standardized in terms of national coverage. The general aim was to analyze the phase of the test implementation, in order to understand how the relationship is between what was prescribed on the management plan of INEP (National Institute of Educational Studies Anísio Teixeira) and what was organized by the institutions that work on Enem implementation. It was noted an increase on the test range of application after 2010, when the students’ results came to be used as important tools for the set of policies by the Ministry of Education (MEC), replacing the traditional entrance tests of College public institutions. The new purposes aggregated to the results have made its operation to be qualitatively different from those faced in the first years of implementation, particularly in relation to the risks and vulnerabilities or to the possibility of premature leakage of the test content. This research has a qualitative nature and was exploratory and descriptive. Its methodological procedure of data collection was the interview technique with two focus groups, for whom we made questions from an semi-structured list. The focus groups had INEP’s managers and professionals of the companies that apply the tests. There have been significant advances in the test prescription and organization management that over the period of 2010-2015 established a participatory and shared model in both planes. However, there are risks yet, especially in the application process human dimension. So, 16 actions were identified for the intervention plan towards Enem’s future editions, with 7 focused in human dimension, 06 focused in procedural dimension, and 3 in the system and control dimension.
