Abstract

ALVES, Renata dos Santos  and  THUM, Carmo. ABC Tests in the context of the School Ipiranga/RS: theoretical and daily assumptions of school practice. Educação. Santa Maria [online]. 2019, vol.44, e25104.  Epub Nov 11, 2020. ISSN 1984-6444.  https://doi.org/10.5902/1984644425104.

The aim of this study is to understand the purpose and meaning that the institution’s teacher attaches to the existence of ABC Tests at Ipiranga School and, based on it, to speculate on the theoretical assumptions of the New School Movement, the ABC Tests and the applicability of such methodology in the context of the Ipiranga School, Rio Grande do Sul. For that purpose, the book "The ABC Test, a method of verifying the maturity necessary for the learning of reading and writing", school bookkeeping documents and data on the narratives of the teacher who worked at the institution during the period were used as sources of analysis. The tests show a concept of education as a set of techniques required to adapt to the nation's requirements. The inconsistency of the ABC tests presence at the school under study indicates resistance from resignified practices and highlights the absence of relation between theoretical and daily assumptions of school practice, which led to the postponement of all tests.

Keywords : School historiography; ABC tests; Local culture.
