Abstract

This research is about the the National Assessment of income school, whose school units have census and biannual access to sets of measures of their students performance through evidence of curricular contents of Portuguese Language and Mathematics. This study investigated the knowledge and methodologies of the Pedagogical Coordinator that could favor and broaden the diagnostic function of the results of the Brazilian Mathematics Assessment. . The research was carried out at municipal school of Manaus that presents the results of the Índice de Desenvolvimento da Educaçao Básica (the Basic Education Development Index) )above the predicted [national / state] target. The investigations were based on a qualitative methodological proposal. The empirical corpus was constituted in consecutive semi-structured interviews with three participants. Data analysis indicated that, although the reports indicate different modalities of resources directly linked to the achievement of positive tests, as well as the significant reduction of avoidance, restrictions were identified regarding the training scope provided in everyday interactions, especially in terms of more relevant dimensions of the descriptors understanding present in the Reference Matrices. The reports showed that, in spite of the high values of registered IDEB, the school sustains a reduction in the increment of such values, considering the last four versions of the Prova Brasil ( An Important brazilian Test ), as well as the updates to the official materials provided as strategies of preparation of the students. Restrictions on the explanations and examples of professional knowledge defined by pedagogical interpretations of the reach of the descriptors in terms of the planning of classroom interactions were found in a strong and restarted way. Differently, it was verified the priority in the execution of exercises and predictable patterns of resolution as strategies to learn the descriptors and, according to the pedagogical coordinator, it is pertinent and relevant to propose initial and continuing training programs for subsidies in the promotion of Prova Brasil.
