TEXTOS/DOCUMENTOS CURRICULARES NACIONAIS (2013 A 2017) PARA/NA EDUCAÇÃO BÁSICA E A AVALIAÇÃO ESCOLAR

Abstract

This study is part of the research program of/at the School Culture Observatory (OCE), which takes as sources and object of studies: texts and curriculum documents produced for the spaces of formal and non-formal education. They are understood as an instance of school formation, with explicit educational objectives and intentional action institutionalized, structured and systematized, and also as a possibility of production, selection and distribution of knowledge out of curriculum structures of the traditional teaching. In this context, we contribute to the study of the discussions formats on evaluation on curricular texts, in early childhood education stages and elementary education: from the National Guidelines for Basic Education (DCNEB, 2010; 2013), passing through the guidelines proposed in the Curricular Inquiries Collection of 2007, in particular, the Curriculum and Evaluation section, up to the versions of the National Common Curricular Base (BNCC, 2015; 2016; 2017). This collection of text apprehended to investigate the way the discourses approximated to the Theories of Competencies and Human Capital, as well as their relationship with the national and international large-scale evaluation programs. Therefore, it problematizes the binomial evaluation and curriculum, approaching it as a school function and the function of its individuals and its difficulties and routines, through the assumptions of the Critical Curriculum Theory, which implies in problematizing the selection, organization, and distribution of the knowledge brought in texts / curricular documents in the stages investigated here. That said, we explored the hypothesis that the curriculum reforms implanted with the DCNEB (2013), and in-depth with the BNCC (2017), are joined in the concept of performativity, driven by neoliberal principles, supported by a prescriptive curriculum concept, and anchored in the marketing principles guiding the evaluation formats. These principles are closer to a new man who needs to learn about being evaluated.
