MORO, ADRIANO  and  VIVALDI, FLÁVIA MARIA DE CAMPOS. EVALUATION OF SOCIOMORAL VALUES IN TEACHERS IN A MUNICIPAL EDUCATION SYSTEM. Est. Aval. Educ. [online]. 2021, vol.32, e07501.  Epub Feb 25, 2022. ISSN 1984-932X.  https://doi.org/10.18222/eae.v32.7501.

This study aimed to identify social perspectives in moral judgments by primary and lower secondary education teachers in the municipal education system of a city in the state of Minas Gerais. We used, in a digital platform, a scale for evaluating adherence to the sociomoral values of justice, respect, solidarity and democratic coexistence, which was designed and validated by an educational research institution. Results pointed to a predominantly normative social perspective on the part of teachers. Based on such results, the teacher education program that is provided to the municipal education system should include studies on education in moral values so that teachers can progress with regard to their sociomoral perspectives.

Keywords : SOCIOMORAL VALUES; LEVELS OF ATTACHMENT TO VALUES; ITEM RESPONSE THEORY (IRT); MORAL EDUCATION.
