Avaliação Externa: o processo avaliativo em larga escala numa escola pública de Rio Branco/AC

Abstract

The research was outlined with a qualitative approach, through the analysis of documents produced in the school unit and in the federal and state spheres, in addition to documents of curricular guidelines of the state of Acre, as well as the references of the matrix that guides the Prova Brasil (Brazil Test) and the applying of a questionnaire for the pedagogical coordination, principal and teacher of the 5th grade classes. As study subjects, we chose to verify, what marks / impacts the large scale evaluation is making in the school and in its contributors to formation and how are the school management, the pedagogical coordination and the teacher of the 5th grade classes reacting to these external evaluation processes. The place where the information to support this research work was collected, showed strong signs of valuing the reach of an expressive rate as the results achieved in 2013 and 2015 placed the school on the top of the rank established among schools in the municipality of Rio Branco, in Acre. We understand that the school practices endorsed by external guidelines linked to Prova Brasil, put in place curricular practices that, perhaps, could enable other forms of learning and the use of reading, writing and mathematical calculation, in addition to favour other areas of scientific and popular knowledge of the region in which the school is inserted, keeping in mind that students have different experiences and learning situations with their families and communities.
