Each tool was experimented by the group of researchers and they are all supported by authors such as Ludwig, Zabalza, Claxton, Moscovici, Jodelet, Marconi and Lakatos, and sampling tested (pilot-school). Data collection tools were aligned to verify if they could meet the proposed project goals before they were finally applied. The article introduces six tools created by the research group and two tools already implemented. As well, it contextualizes where those tools can be used.
