ALMEIDA, Laurinda Ramalho de. Diário de itinerância, recurso para formação e avaliação de estudantes universitários. Est. Aval. Educ. [online]. 2012, vol.23, n.51, pp.250-269. ISSN 0103-6831.

This article aims to present an experiment using the itinerancy diary in two Graduate Programs, as discussed by René Barbier (2007). The term, coined by the author, is understood as a “notepad in which each one jots down what he feels, what he thinks, what he meditates about, what he makes poetry about, what he aprehends from a theory, from a conversation, what he builds to give meaning to life”. Barbier proposes this as a technique for action-research, but in these courses, we used it as a technique for training and assessment. From the first course, we provide examples of the diaries that were elaborated, and from the second course, we present testimonies from the students who elaborated and socialized their diaries. Among these students’ declarations of their work with these itinerancy diaries, we highlight: to register in the diary what made an impact on their paths as students and as professionals, gave them greater intimacy with the articles that were read and discussed, and made them aware of their value as professionals. In addition, it gave them elements for self-knowledge, not only to those who wrote the diary, but also to those who listened to it.

Keywords : Learning Assessment; Professional Training; Itinerancy Diary; Graduate Students.
