dc.description.abstractThe External Evaluation of Schools (EES) has been recognized in Portugal as an important mechanism for producing change in non-higher education schools, even though those changes appear not always to affect the core of educational action – the classroom. Currently in its 3rd cycle of implementation, EES privileges a focus on processes, specifically teaching processes. That justifies our intention to look intently into how processes oriented towards the improvement of teaching practices, such as teacher supervision, are conceptualized in the referentials that guide EES and on the evaluation reports it produces. The study was based on the documental analysis of the referentials of the 3 cycles of EES, of the school reports of the 3rd cycle of EES, and whenever possible, of the reports concerning the same schools in previous cycles of EES. The documental corpus was subjected to content analysis. The results highlight the presence of references to supervision since the 1st cycle of EES and a tendency, particularly in 3rd cycle reports, to value teacher supervision of a collaborative matrix, and to consider that practice is still not fully implemented at schools.pt_PT
dc.description.abstractA Avaliação Externa das Escolas (AEE) tem sido reconhecida, emPortugal, como um importante mecanismo de produção de mudanças nas escolas do ensino não superior, muito embora essas mudanças nem sempre pareçam atingir o cerne da ação educativa –a sala de aula. Atualmente no seu terceiro ciclo de implementação, a AEE privilegia o foco nos processos, concretamente nos processos de ensino. Tal justifica que prestemos um olhar atento à forma como processos orientados para a melhoria da prática letiva, como é o caso da supervisão pedagógica, são conceptualizados nos referenciais que orientam a AEE e nos relatórios que dela resultam. O estudo realizado baseou-se na análise documental dos referenciais dos 3 ciclos de AEE, dos relatórios do 3.º ciclo de AEE e, quando possível, e de forma complementar, de relatórios das mesmas escolas avaliadas em ciclos anteriores, numa lógica diacrónica. O corpus documental foi sujeito a análise de conteúdo. Os resultados salientam a presença de referências à supervisão desde o 1º ciclo de AEE, e uma tendência, sobretudo nos relatórios do 3.º ciclo, para valorizar uma supervisão pedagógica de matriz colaborativa, bem como para considerar que essa prática ainda não está completamente implementada nas escolas.pt_PT
