ARAUJO, Maria de Lourdes Haywanon Santos  and  TENORIO, Robinson Moreira. Brazilian results in pisa and its (mis)uses. Est. Aval. Educ. [online]. 2017, vol.28, n.68, pp.344-380.  Epub May 01, 2017. ISSN 1984-932X.  https://doi.org/10.18222/eae.v28i68.4553.

The objective of this study was to analyze how the results of the Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) were used in the Brazilian educational context. The literature review showed that assessment is a fundamental factor for the qualification of education, for elaborating an overview of the PISA studies in Brazil, as well as for promoting discussions about the need to use the results of evaluations on a large scale. Based on the documentary analysis and semi-structured interviews, it was possible not only to present a study on the use of the PISA results in the country but also to establish categories of uses, such as Improper Usage or Lack of Usage, showing the possibilities and difficulties of such use and the administrators’ role in this process.

Keywords : PISA; Use of Results; Educational Assessment; Public Policies.
