NEW RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN CURRICULUM AND ASSESSMENT? REPLACING AND REDIRECTING THE DEBATE
Keywords:
large-scale assessment, curriculum, schoolwork organizationAbstract
This article aims to discuss the relations established between evaluation and curriculum at
various moments in the development of the educational evaluation field in Brazil and abroad. It retakes
how such relations have been established since the 19th century to argue that the interrelations between
evaluation and curriculum have always taken place, despite changes in their characteristics and purposes.
It discusses results of studies which show that external and large-scale evaluations have induced curricular
and pedagogical practices in Brazilian schools, in different administrative settings, to understand to which
extent there are reductionism and curriculum control. These discussions provide a base for pointing out the need to reinsert the debate beyond the discussion of curricular induction, defending the imperative
to incorporate the debate on educational ends and objectives, as well as the analysis of the potential of
assessments and curricula, to carry out the constitutionally guaranteed right to education.
