Avaliação da aprendizagem e inclusão escolar: A singularidade a serviço da coletividade

Abstract

In this paper we discuss the assessment of learning as a means of inclusion/exclusion through the analysis of concepts that permeate both themes. Through a theoretical study, we present relevant aspects which enable or hinder the consolidation of the evaluation process for diversity relating to the following issues: How to analyze inclusion if not from reflecting about its logical contrary: exclusion? How to evaluate inclusion by focusing only on physical, intellectual or social limitations? We adopted critical theories for reference in an attempt to overcome the vision of determining individual characteristics that include humans embedded in a social, historical and cultural context, which is broad and full of contradictions. We conclude that the school must prepare individuals able to evaluate their actions, generalizing knowledge and experience, making analysis and synthesis, considering not only the individual dimension, but above all, the collectivity.
