A presente tese tem como objetivo geral analisar as linhas do dispositivo da Numeramentalidade na constituição das práticas avaliativas em larga escala, mais especificamente, tomando a Avaliação Nacional da Alfabetização – ANA – como foco empírico. Metodologicamente, analisam-se documentos referentes à ANA com inspiração na maneira foucaultiana de fazer pesquisa, utilizando algumas das ferramentas teórico-analíticas criadas pelo autor. Dessa forma, busca-se mostrar o funcionamento do dispositivo da Numeramentalidade através de suas linhas constitutivas, isolando as estratégias e os jogos de verdade na produção de saberes, as táticas ou técnicas para condução das condutas de si e dos outros e os modos de constituição de subjetividades. Ao colocar em funcionamento esse conceito, entendido como um dispositivo de nossa época, foram traçadas tramas discursivas entre as suas linhas, as mesmas que constituem os resultados e as análises da tese. A primeira trama aborda a produção do risco do analfabetismo infantil e as estratégias de produção numérica das práticas avaliativas para comparar. A segunda trama trata da metodologia adotada nos testes de desempenho da ANA, marcada pela medição e por processos classificatórios, a partir dos quais é possível discutir a construção de níveis de leitura e escrita proposta pelas escalas de proficiência. Na terceira trama argumenta-se que o dispositivo da Numeramentalidade, através dos saberes estatísticos, dos processos classificatórios e das verdades que coloca em jogo, produz formas-sujeito e subjetividades numeramentalizadas. Por fim, considera-se a produtividade do conceito de Numeramentalidade para analisar as práticas avaliativas em larga escala. Através da analítica desenvolvida, formula-se a tese desta pesquisa: as linhas do dispositivo da Numeramentalidade que operam nas práticas avaliativas em larga escala, mais especificamente, na Avaliação Nacional da Alfabetização, produzem visibilidades e dizibilidades sobre a alfabetização das crianças através dos jogos de verdade das estatísticas e dos processos classificatórios, em articulação com discursos pedagógicos e psicológicos, produzindo tipos de sujeito e subjetividades numeramentalizadas. / This thesis has as main purpose to analyse the lines of Numeramentality dispositif in the composition of assessment practices on a large scale, more specifically, taking the “Avaliação Nacional da Alfabetização.” – ANA – as empirical focus. Methodologically, we analysed documents related to ANA with inspiration in Foucault's way of doing research, using some of the theoretical and analytical tools created by the author. Thus, we seek to show the functioning of Numeramentality dispositif through its constituent lines, isolating strategies and the truth games in the production of knowledge, the tactics and techniques for conducting the conduct of others and one’s self, as well as the subjectivities constitution modes.Once this concept was put into operation, which is understood as a dispositif of our time, discursive plots were drawn between its lines, which are the same presented in the results and analyses of this thesis. The first plot deals with the production of the risk of child illiteracy and the numerical production strategies of assessment practices to be compared. The second plot deals with the methodology used in performance tests of ANA, marked by measurement and qualifying processes, from which it is possible to discuss the construction of reading and writing levels proposed by the proficiency scales. The third plot argues that the Numeramentality dispositif through the statistical knowledge, the qualifying process and the truths that puts at stake, produces form- subject and a “numeramentalized” subjectivity. Finally, it is taken into account the productivity of the Numeramentality concept to analyse assessment practices on a large scale. Through the developed analytics, the thesis of this research is formulated: the lines of the dispositif of Numeramentality that operate in the evaluative practices in large scale, more specifically, in the “Avaliação Nacional de Alfabetização”, produce ways of being and ways of saying on children's illiteracy through the truth statistical games and qualifying processes in conjunction with pedagogical and psychological discourses, producing discursively types of subject and “numeramentalized” subjectivity.

The purpose of this study was to explore string teachers? assessment practices related to string program success. Additionally, the study examined the relationship between teacher characteristics and string program success. This study was conducted by surveying string teachers (N = 201) from around the country. The survey was designed based on the independent variables of teacher characteristics and assessment practices, and the dependent variable of string program success. Results indicated that string teachers most frequently assess with teacher-given verbal criticism, rehearsal skills, attendance, teacher-rated rubrics, and student evaluations. The least common assessment practices used by string teachers were composition assignments, music history assessments, portfolio assessment, improvisation/creativity assignments, and cross-curricular assignments. String program success was correlated with the assessment practices of written assessments, student reflections, teacher-rated rubrics, sightreading skills assessment, student evaluations, music theory assessments, music history assessments, and portfolio assessments, and student rated rubrics. Years of teaching, level of education, musicianship-based assessment, and student-based assessments were predictors of string program success. String program success did not differ as a function of years teaching, however there is a difference in string program success within the characteristics of gender, education level, and primary instrument, as well as primary instrument by education level.

Assessing the attachment between a child and caregiver is an important task within the social worker's professional domain. This is mostly restricted due to a lack of training and expertise with regard to methods and techniques used in assessing attachment. The identified problem led to the implementation of a descriptive study aimed at exploring effectiveness of scales for the assessment of attachment between the child in the middle childhood years and his/her caregiver. The goal was achieved by studying and exploring available practices derived from an extensive literature review and empirical study. Seven social workers in Bloemfontein participated in the study. Target-sampling was undertaken to ensure that participants represented different areas in the work-field that employ the assessment of attachment. Social workers in South Africa show preference to qualitative assessment procedures, including an assessment of the child, an assessment of the caregiver, observation and a collateral investigation. Although such an approach is generally consistent with literature, the present study highlighted an additional need for the standardization of assessment scales for attachment in middle childhood to be utilized in conjunction with qualitative methods of assessment. The literature review confirmed the availability of a range of reliable scales, though not validated thoroughly, but thus far unexplored by social workers in South Africa. A qualitative approach within the Developmental and Utilization Model enabled the researcher to conduct an in-depth analysis of the existing problem. Information was gathered with regard to relevant aspects of attachment in middle childhood in a successful attempt to formulate guidelines for the development of an effective model for the assessment of attachment between the child in middle childhood years and his caregiver. / Thesis (M.A. (MW))--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2009.

Because of the results, it intends to install an educational policy that provides the final result of quality education for all students to allow their adherence to higher education and the labor market. External evaluations experienced in curricular component of mathematics revealed that the results presented so far are very significant for the network. The advances obtained so far have shown weaknesses in the teaching and learning. This study was intended to verify the influences that external evaluations have produced in the practices of classrooms, as well as establishing relationships with internal assessments applied by teachers. To this end, we carried out an investigation with a qualitative survey of work done on this theme, plus interviews with teachers from SESI / SP, whose schools showed improvements in mean component math skills in the past experienced external evaluations. It was found that external evaluations are changing as the school routine practices of teachers in the evaluation process, and are serving as a reference to a targeting component of the curriculum in mathematics. It seems to have over the years, a school evaluation practice that aims results at the expense of formative assessment in the context of knowledge. Moreover, external evaluations conducted in the network SESI / SP have influenced the evaluation practice of experienced teachers in the classrooms with the use of various instruments, which are applied intensified in the period preceding the evaluations. It is concluded that the external evaluation must be well understood, analyzed and researched to direct the work of the teacher and not to press, especially the teacher who is directly connected to the students evaluated / O Serviço Social da Indústria São Paulo - SESI/SP, como instituição de ensino visando melhorar a qualidade educacional de seus estudantes no ensino fundamental, propõe aos seus alunos avaliações externas aplicadas desde 1999. Almeja, a partir dos resultados, instalar uma política educacional que proporcione, como resultado final, um ensino de qualidade para todos os educandos, de forma a permitir sua adesão ao ensino superior, bem como ao mercado de trabalho. Das avaliações externas vivenciadas no componente curricular de matemática, verificou-se que os resultados apresentados até o momento são pouco significativos para a rede. Os avanços adquiridos até o momento demonstraram fragilidades no processo de ensino e aprendizagem. Esse estudo teve a intenção de verificar as influências que as avaliações externas têm produzido nas práticas das salas de aulas, bem como relações que estabelecem com as avaliações internas aplicadas pelos professores. Para tanto, realizou-se uma investigação de cunho qualitativo com levantamentos de trabalhos desenvolvidos nesse tema, além de entrevistas realizadas com professores da rede SESI/SP, cujas escolas apresentaram avanços na média de habilidades no componente de matemática nas últimas avaliações externas vivenciadas. Constatou-se que as avaliações externas estão mudando a rotina escolar, quanto a práticas dos professores no processo avaliativo, além de estarem servindo de referência para um direcionamento do currículo no componente de matemática. Parece ter, ao longo dos anos, uma prática avaliativa escolar que visa resultados, em detrimento de uma avaliação formativa no âmbito dos conhecimentos. Além disso, as avaliações externas realizadas na rede SESI/SP têm influenciado as práticas avaliativas dos professores vividas nas salas, com o uso de diversos instrumentos os quais são aplicados de forma intensificada no período que antecede às avaliações. Conclui-se que a avaliação externa precisa ser bem compreendida, analisada e pesquisada para direcionar o trabalho do professor, e não para pressionar, principalmente, o professor que está diretamente ligado aos alunos avaliados

nÃo hà / O trabalho de tese teve por objetivo avaliar a concepÃÃo de ensino, aprendizagem e prÃtica avaliativa, de professores de MatemÃtica, do Ensino MÃdio, de escolas da cidade de Fortaleza. No intuito de atingir o objetivo, partiu-se da perspectiva metodolÃgica de MORIN, pela qual o mÃtodo à um caminho a ser traÃado, à medida que a pesquisa se desenvolve. Utilizou-se a tÃcnica de amostragem e determinou-se a quantidade de 15 escolas, da rede pÃblica, e 10 escolas privada, que seriam pesquisadas, de um universo de 282 escolas. No entanto, o trabalho de pesquisa foi feito em 13 escolas particulares e 17 pÃblicas, sendo entrevistados, ao final, 57 professores de MatemÃtica, em efetivo exercÃcio profissional. Para a coleta de dados foi elaborado um roteiro de entrevista contendo 14 assertivas e 1 questÃo aberta. Para cada assertiva o entrevistado respondeu, inicialmente, à escala (concordo, concordo em parte, discordo) e, a seguir, justificou sua escolha externando sua opiniÃo de forma mais detalhada. Para o registro desse procedimento, usou-se um gravador de fita cassete. Cada entrevista foi gravada, em sua Ãntegra, e depois transcrita usando-se o editor de texto Word for Windows. A anÃlise dos dados foi feita em duas etapas: uma descriÃÃo das respostas por meio da EstatÃstica Descritiva, utilizando-se o programa Statistical Parckage of Social Sciences (SPSS) e uma elaboraÃÃo de categorias por meio do mÃtodo de reduÃÃo fenomenolÃgica de HUSSERL. As categorias finais â prÃtica tradicional de ensino, visÃo renovada de ensino, ensino deficitÃrio, aprendizagem deficiente, Ãnfase no trabalho do professor â direcionaram a anÃlise feita para caracterizar a concepÃÃo dos professores de MatemÃtica, do Ensino MÃdio, sobre ensino, aprendizagem e prÃtica avaliativa. Partindo-se da anÃlise, apontou-se que o professorado possui idÃias consolidadas advindas de suas vivÃncias e prÃticas profissionais, que, estando internalizadas, precisam ser operacionalizadas na prÃtica. Boa parte das idÃias, do professorado, converge para as determinaÃÃes legais expressas nos ParÃmetros Curriculares Nacional para o Ensino MÃdio. / This study has as its objective the evaluation the teaching, learning and assessment practices of mathematic teachers at Intermediate Level Schools in the city of Fortaleza. To attain this object the methodological perspective of MORIN was used. Morin insists that method is a route to be followed as the research develops. The sample was technically arrives at and it determined that 15 public schools and 10 private ones be used in the research from a universe of 282 schools. However, the study in fact covered 13 private schools and 17 public schools. Fifty seven mathematics teachers, currently teaching, were interviewed. The data was collected through interviews containing 14 closed questions and one open one. In each closed question the person being interviewed initially answered as follows on the scale: I agree, I agree in part, I disagree. This was followed by justifying his choice or opinion in more precise detail. All interviews were fully recorded on a tape recorder. Afterwards these recordings were transcribed and edited by the text editor Word for Windows. An analysis of the data was carried out in two stages: a description of the answers by means of Descriptive Statistics, using the program Statistical Package of Social Science (SPSS) and the elaboration into categories using the phenomenological method of reduction of Husserl. The final categories â traditional practice of teaching, renewed vision of teaching, deficient teaching, emphasis in the work of the teacher, - directed the analysis being carried out to characterize the conception of mathematic teachers at Intermediate Level regarding teaching, learning and academic assessment. The results showed that the teachers have consolidated ideas concerning their professional practice that when internalized need to be put into operation in practice. A considerable part of the teachers ideas are in accordance wit the legal determinations expresses in National Curriculum Parameters for Intermediate Teaching.
