Atividade investigativa e sua avaliação: proposta de uma tabela de descritores como parâmetro para a avaliação

Abstract

The evaluation for learning in Science Education by research has been pointed out as a little-discussed theme in teaching training courses, leading consequences for its effectiveness in classroom context. Considering the need to assess the students knowledges coherently with this new teaching perspective, this paper proposes the use of a descriptor table as a parameter to be used in teachers practice evaluation who adopts the teaching by research in natural sciences disciplines. These teachers were interviewed after using this table and for data analysis, we used many studies that discuss the assessment practice in Science Education by research. Overall, the results indicates that the descriptor table is a useful e effective tool to be used as an evaluative tool in Science Education by researching.
