A avaliação das aprendizagens em matemática: uma metanálise a partir de teses brasileiras
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2018-05-03) ANGELIM, José Aurimar dos Santos; BORRALHO, António Manuel Águas; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3404547486428285; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6278-2958; GONÇALVES, Tadeu Oliver; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6789250569319668; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-2704-5853
The evaluation of learning in mathematics has been a focus in dialogues and consequent research concerned with the promotion of knowledge. For many years the evaluation was taken as a mere verifier of knowledge, from the perspective that the teacher understood necessary and sufficient that was learned. The student was a mere depository of knowledge and also subject to verification. The formative processes evolved and in contradiction to the controls imposed by world financing of the education of emergent countries, one saw, for example, the diverse models of Large-Scale and external evaluation of them, understanding that in this way it would be possible to understand how the students were presenting their performance. This made the anxieties mobilize us to understand how the Academy presented the Evaluation in its researches, because I understand that this delimitation can bring a profile of the Evaluation in the country from the University as a producer of knowledge. Therefore, immersion in the readings on the subject and in the dialogues made me problematize the situations that troubled me to answer the question: how is the evaluation of learning in mathematics in Brazilian doctoral research? Therefore, I proposed to investigate the presentation of the evaluation of learning in mathematics, based on the theories, epistemologies, principles and precepts presented in Brazilian theses between 2011 and 2015, emphasizing the proposed assessment knowledge. The methodology adopted for this process was the meta-analysis, since it is understood that analytical analysis is a relevant action for future research in the field and for the use of the mathematics teacher educator, highlighting, in a process that, together with the systematic review, may respond to guiding question. After diving in the Platform Sucupira, through the thesis bank, I made a tiresome search of the theses that adopted the terms evaluation and mathematics, so that the 17 theses outlined in the various doctoral programs that had a direct relationship with Mathematics Education could be reached. With the research corpus delimited, I set out to analyze the analyzes, where I infer, through the hermeneutic interpretation, what were presented in the three axes of analysis constituted, defined as Propositional Elements, Methodological Elements and Conclusive Elements. With the research, I could recognize that among the seventeen theses studied, eight of them do not deal with the Evaluation as a central theme, and the remaining nine that deal with the theme in their research focus, are placed under several reverberations of Evaluation in the educational context: evaluation as a research practice, external evaluation as a tool for studies around mathematical knowledge and the Evaluation of learning in higher education. Among what I can define as a conclusion, I affirm the importance of establishing spaces for evaluative dialogues in educational institutions, in formal and non-formal environments. Still on the theses, I consider that there are some obstacles that I call obstacles, which prevent certain conceptions about evaluation: the absence of dialogues on evaluation; the separation of didactic-pedagogical and specific training; the requirement to comply with a curriculum imposed and imposed; the emphasis on the results of external evaluations; shortage of academic meetings that disrupt educational programs; a mechanical reproduction of assessment as part of the teaching-learning process. Therefore, I understand this thesis as a driver of new research that studies the evaluation, its perceptions, practices and contexts of concepts and educational operationalization.

GAIN: um guia para avaliação da interface de aplicativos para atividades físicas
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2023-01-19) FERREIRA, Josué Viana; SANTOS, Viviane Almeida dos; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1489376127395764; PORTELA, Carlos dos Santos; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7707594869367480
During the period of the COVID-19 pandemic, several personal trainers recommended fitness mobile applications to their students so that they could perform physical activities at home. However, poorly designed interfaces may hinder users to perform their workouts properly. This article presents a guide that provides a set of recommendations so that the personal trainer can assess whether an application is suitable to assist practitioners in their training. Initially, usability evaluation methods were selected and applied to identify usability criteria that were the basis for the guide's recommendations. Subsequently, the persona of the personal trainer was identified, and the guide was evaluated based on the SWOT analysis. The result was the identification of ten recommendations that can be used both for users to evaluate their applications and for interface designers to develop apps that meet the particularities of this software category.

Idas e vindas da escrita: construção coletiva de procedimentos de avaliação da produção textual para os anos finais do Ensino Fundamental
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2020-06-18) CARDOSO, Natália Moraes; FAIRCHILD, Thomas Massao; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1771292039081039
In this paper, we discuss an experience of teaching writing based on the collective organization of work by teachers in the Portuguese Language area at the Municipal School of Elementary Education Raimunda da Silva Barros, located on the outskirts of the city of Cametá, northeast of Pará. The research began with the evaluation and re (construction) of a writing project previously existing in the school, thought from the analysis of the results of the project and the texts produced by the students. We proposed, in the 2019 academic year, some changes and / or modifications to the project based on our general objective, which consisted of developing a proposal for teaching writing for the final years of elementary school that would allow the Portuguese language faculty of the institution to produce its own assessment of student performance, with a view to developing a training project for student readers and writers. To achieve this, we proposed the following specific objectives: a) to create spaces for collective work at school, involving the Portuguese language teaching staff of the final years of elementary school, by proposing a working group on writing; b) collectively evaluate the results of the project “The essay in exam” for the year 2018; c) make the Portuguese language school and classroom a space for daily exercise of writing by proposing and implementing a writing project collectively built by Portuguese language teachers; d) create forms of evaluation and monitoring of students' writing development that can be shared by the school, in order to favor the continuity of the work. The theoretical approach that helped us to think about these actions was based on two “fronts”. In the first, generally related to the area of education, we use the studies of Michael Apple (1989; 1995); Jorge Larrosa (2002) and Maurice Tardif and Claude Lessard, (2005), who discuss the relationship between teaching practices and the knowledge that sustain teaching work. In the second, in terms of language, we have the contributions of Mikhail Bakhtin and Valentín Volochinov (1997), Eglê Franchi (1986), Lucy Mccormick Calkins (1989), Magda Soares (1992), Cláudia Riolfi et al. (2008), Sírio Possenti (2009), and, especially, with the works of João Wanderley Geraldi (1984; 1997; 2015), which offered us the opportunity to think about teaching and learning Portuguese in an interactionist perspective, considering school practices themselves as a social space for exchanges, resistances and transformations. The methodology of our work consisted of a critical action research, in the terms of Ghedin and Franco (2008), whose nature is composed of a descriptive-qualitative research of diagnostic character, through which we carry out a work of observation, investigation and reflection of the product of our own teaching practice. In the classroom, we carry out various activities based on the three pillars of mother tongue teaching which, according to Geraldi (1984), are: reading, textual production and linguistic analysis. In general, these activities aimed to lead students to produce narrative-descriptive and expository-argumentative texts. The results point in two directions: the first refers to the possibility of implementing spaces for discussion in the school in which the collectivization of work points out ways to solve problems faced in the classroom. With regard to students, we have shown with our experience on the classroom floor that it is possible in mother tongue classes to provide the construction of writing processes that allow students to establish themselves as authors.
