CARMO, Andreia do and DIAS, Julice. Context Evaluation In Early Childhood Education: Teachers' Points Of View In Debate. Regae: Rev. Gest. Aval. Educ. [online]. 2022, vol.11, n.20, e70602. Epub Sep 18, 2023. ISSN 2318-1338. https://doi.org/10.5902/2318133870602.
The article aims to present the meanings that Context Assessment assumes in an educational institution when its results are used in a formative dimension. It is based on the qualitative methodology using action research as a method of procedure and, while generating data, it uses the interactive technique of focus group. It argues that assessment instruments are a starting point for negotiating quality and fostering the training process in the assessed context. It highlights that questioning latent pedagogical practices implies assuming in-service training as a condition to legitimize institutional identity. It concludes by proposing that evaluation at this stage of Basic Education should be part of public evaluation policies focused on the conditions of educational provision.
