OLIVEIRA, MARIA ANGELA ALVES DE e SANTOS, ANA LÚCIA FÉLIX DOS. EDUCATIONAL ACCOUNTABILITY: DISCURSIVE MEANINGS IN ANALYSIS. Est. Aval. Educ. [online]. 2021, vol.32, e07946. Epub 21-Jul-2021. ISSN 1984-932X. https://doi.org/10.18222/eae.v32.7946.
The paper discusses the meanings of the term accountability in education from the critical analysis of the discourse found in academic studies dedicated to researching evaluation policies in Brazil and their relationship with this term. The results revealed heterogeneous discourses regarding the translation of accountability. However, it confirmed a polarization that translates the term sometimes as accountability, sometimes as liability, the latter being found more frequently. The analyzed expression assumes a negative social representation when it is associated with the liability of education professionals for the results of large-scale assessments and linked to accountability, in a more direct and explicit way, for salary incentive programs.
