SILVA, DAISY DA; VAZ-REBELO, PIEDADE  e  CANHOTO, CRISTINA. APPROPRIATE ASSESSMENT TO THE CURRICULUM? WHAT IS EXPRESSED BY THE CONTENTS REQUIRED IN THE NATIONAL EXAMS OF BIOLOGY IN PORTUGAL AND BRAZIL. Ens. Pesqui. Educ. Ciênc. [online]. 2020, vol.22, e12465.  Epub 07-Abr-2020.

The objective of this research was to analyze the correspondence between the guiding principles of the Biology curriculum and the National Examination in Portugal and the National High School Examination (ENEM) in Brazil. To this end, an empirical documentary study was developed to analyze the questions of the Biology of the above-mentioned examinations. It was found that both Exams have a reduced number of Biology questions to test the various contents indicated by the official documents, as well as favoring certain contents. When testing scientific knowledge, Portugal surpasses Brazil, as it presents essay questions in the structure of the Examination. National Examinations may standardize, in terms of knowledge, what will be taught by requiring more questions on a given topic.
