MARTINS, Marcus Leonardo Bomfim  and  GABRIEL, Carmen Teresa. Saerjinho: disputed meanings of evaluation. Est. Aval. Educ. [online]. 2016, vol.27, n.64, pp.160-186. ISSN 1984-932X.  https://doi.org/10.18222/eae.v27i64.3416.

This articles aims at exploring the ambivalences created in the process of producing meanings about Saerjinho - the official evaluation comprising the Educational Evaluation System of Rio Janeiro - by the State Department of Education of Rio de Janeiro, from the Center for Public Policy and Evaluation of Education, and of teachers in the system. The approach to information and official documents on the referred evaluation and interviews with teachers is inscribed within an epistemological discursive approach operating within the post-foundational framework which leads to understanding of the process of assigning meaning as a political act. The analysis showed that there are disputes among the three agents chosen for the production of meaning about Saerjinho, and that the terms internal evaluation, external evaluation and diagnostic evaluation have their borders blurred according the political interests involved.

Keywords : Educational Evaluation; Discourse; Saerjinho; Educational Policies.
