FRANGELLA, Rita de Cássia Prazeres  and  MENDES, Juliana Camila Barbosa. “What is a good result?” Inquiring the sense of assessment and its curriculum articulations. Ensaio: aval. pol. públ. educ. [online]. 2018, vol.26, n.99, pp.1-20.  Epub Feb 08, 2018. ISSN 0104-4036.  https://doi.org/10.1590/S0104-40362018002600982.

This work contains a reflection related to research whose goal was the production of curriculum policies in the city of Rio de Janeiro, discussing the connections and links between the demands of the schools network and its local needs with special attention to the practice of pedagogical coordination as space for curriculum articulation/production. During the analysis of the empirical corpus of the research, the relationship between curriculum and assessment in a testing culture scenario has been highlighted as being the way of an assessment practice and its relationship with curriculum production. Thus, we problematized the displacements of meanings that are reinterpreted and treated as objects of hegemony in the production of curriculum policy in which the assessment constitutes a policy based on the prescription of quality linked to an accountability speech.

Keywords : Assessment; Accountability; Curriculum Policy; Evaluation; Quality.
