Abstract

TAVARES, Fernando Gomes de Oliveira. The concept of innovation in education: a necessary review. Educação. Santa Maria [online]. 2019, vol.44, e32311.  Epub Nov 11, 2020. ISSN 1984-6444.  https://doi.org/10.5902/1984644432311.

It performs an analysis on the concept of challenge present in educational exams. Selected and examined one set of twenty-three articles scientific, indexed in two international databases (SciELO and Web of Science), published in the period from 1974 to 2017. As a result, it is perceived that an innovation is understood from four perspectives: as something positive beforehand, as synonymous with educational reform, as a change of curricular proposals and as a change of educational practices in a social group. It concludes that the concept of innovation is a wide network of meanings that are linked to the different epistemological and ideological conceptions about the educational process.

Keywords : Innovation; Education; Educational innovation.
