Apropriação dos resultados das avaliações externas: um estudo investigativo na escola “Bela Vista”

Abstract

This thesis, developed under the Professional Master’s Program in Education Management and Assessment (PPGP) of the Center for Education Public Policy and Evaluation of the Federal University of Juiz de Fora (CAEd / UFJF), aims to reflect on the use of the external evaluations results, from an investigative look at the process that triggered such results. Measuring the education quality through the performance data in external evaluation is a necessary action considering the current educational scenario. Evaluating the data alone is an outdated attitude and contrary to the principles of quality and equity that support the educational evaluation policy. The focus of the research, during the investigative process, was the analysis of the actions implemented by “Bela Vista” school for the appropriation of the results of external evaluations, considering the characteristics of the school context. Thus, in the process, the following processes were carried out: documentary research and interviews with semi-structured questions applied to participants of the researched universe: school principal, Portuguese and Mathematics teachers and 9th graders. The survey results confirm the inefficient and ineffective use of external evaluation results, as there is no space, time and/or systematic actions to analysis, discussion and dissemination of results in the organizational culture of school.
