CUNHA, Maria Isabel da. Docência na universidade, cultura e avaliação institucional: saberes silenciados em questão. Rev. Bras. Educ. [online]. 2006, vol.11, n.32, pp.258-271. ISSN 1413-2478.

The paper reports results from an interinstitutional research on the Brazilian National Course Exam. Students, teachers and coordinators belonging to 12 higher education courses from different institutions at the state of Rio Grande do Sul were interviewed. Results detected the impact of evaluation policies on the performance of teachers. There were, nevertheless, some variety among the results, when different courses were concerned. Courses focusing on liberal professions showed a competitive approach while those focusing on teacher training programmes were more centered on pedagogical processes. Nonetheless, both profiles were hit on their subjectivity and showed a tendency to reorganization towards the success parameters imposed by the evaluation model. The model interferes with teachers knowledge and silences many of those contra posing the patterns imposed by the evaluation, directing the quality of pedagogical practice at the universities.

Keywords : Evaluation Policies; Pedagogical University; Knowledge Teachers.
