A funcionalidade da Avaliação em Matemática no Ensino Médio

The evaluation appears as a natural process in which a professional education to build a notion of content assimilated by the students as well as whether the teaching methods adopted by him are having an effect on learning of these. Long meant, to apply only to evaluate evidence, a grade and classify students in approved and disapproved. Even today there are teachers who believe that assessment is only in this process. However, this vision has been gradually modified. The evaluation is not at the time of carrying out tests and checks, but is an ongoing process, aimed at reflection for error correction and forwarding the student to acquire the expected objectives. This study was designed to analyze the data from the result of the survey, we can see that the form evaluative functions as an element of integration and motivation for the teaching-learning process. The speech of most education professionals interviewed here reflects the current notion that the evaluation process is currently understood not only as the result of the tests, but the results of the work and / or research that students perform. There are numerous evaluative techniques that allow the teacher to evaluate student performance and escape the traditional written exam, allowing teachers and students to dialogue sought to find and correct possible errors by redirecting the student for learning, motivating for the correction, and suggesting to him new ways of study for better understanding of the issues addressed within the class. The key is to understand that the evaluation process is not just about taking exams and assign grade. Evaluation is a continuous learning process that occurs every day in order to correct mistakes and build new knowledge.

A influência da doença oncológica pediátrica no auto conceito académico

Shavelson e Bolus (1982, cit.in Peixoto,2003), caracteriza o autoconceito como o conjunto de percepções que as pessoas possuem acerca de si próprias. Enquanto que Rosenberg (1979) se refere à auto-estima como a atitude global que a pessoa tem em relação a si própria, a qual implica um sentimento de valor. Estima-se que, no ano 2000, um em cada mil jovens adultos, entre 20 e 29 anos de idade, será um sobrevivente de cancro na infância (Varni, Katz, Colegrove & Dolgin, 1994), o que representará cerca de 210.000 indivíduos sobreviventes ao cancro na infância apenas nos Estados Unidos (Lozowski, 1993). Pretende-se comparar se os sobreviventes de cancro têm menor autoconceito, autoestima e autoconceito académico do que aqueles que nunca tiveram doença oncológica. O Estudo é quantitativo, transversal, correlacional e comparativo. Utilizou-se a escala de autoconceito e autoestima de Susan Harter (1998).
