GHISLENI, Ana Cristina  and  LUCE, Maria Beatriz. Large scale evaluation in the Municipal Education System of Porto Alegre: similarities and differences between groups involved. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2018, vol.34, n.68, pp.163-179. ISSN 1984-0411.  https://doi.org/10.1590/0104-4060.52183.

This article presents an analysis of similarities and differences of the perceptions on large scale evaluation within the Porto Alegre’s municipal system of education. The text is based on the premise of evaluation as construction and recontextualization, as well as the concepts of globalization, political reform, regulation and quality. In terms of methodology, the choice was made for a multiple cases study in order to operate the link between premise and concepts with the main elements brought by interviews. At the end, the large scale evaluation becomes the highlight in a protagonist position mainly sponsored by the municipal education system’s central administration bureau - which is reflected in the other interviewed bureaus’ positions - and elevated to the condition of structural policy for management and pedagogical practice in general.

Keywords : Evaluation; Large scale evaluation; Porto Alegre Municipal System of Education..
