EVALUATION OF LEARNING: A CHALLENGE FOR TEACHERS AND STUDENTS IN THE ESCADA MUNICIPAL

Abstract

This article aims to investigate whether the teacher develops pedagogical strategies to motivate students in the process of teaching learning with emphasis on internal and external evaluations. Having a qualitative descriptive methodology that made possible the analysis of observations and interviews with teachers and students involved between three municipal schools in the city of Escada, state of Pernambuco. The results confirm the hypothesis that the student's failure to learn in the assessments is related to the economic difficulties of the children and the teacher's lack of preparation to develop motivating activities and the lack of participation on the part of the students' family. Thus, violence and drug use within schools are also highlighted. However, some students attribute the failure of the external evaluations to the teachers for not investing in the internal activities as the external ones and with this ends up leaving the student with difficulties in the interpretations of the texts applied in this type of evaluation.
