PROVA BRASIL DESCRIPTORS AND THE PORTUGUESE LANGUAGE DIDATIC BOOK: A CASE STUDY

Abstract

This research is the result of the Professional Masters in Letters (ProfLetras) and reflects a little of the reality of the teacher of basic education. The intervention proposal sought to identify which Portuguese Language descriptors collected in ANRESC / Prova Brasil presented difficulties for the students of a ninth grade of a public school in the North of Paraná and how these descriptors were treated by the textbook adopted by the educational institution. After the data collection, the final intention of this research was to socialize the results with the teachers so that they fully understand the context of implantation of the external evaluations, as well as the limitations of the didactic book when working the contents charged in the said examination. From the results, it was verified that the didactic book analyzed has all the descriptors of the Test, but with a different approach from the one used in the exam, without tests in the didactic material, with little dialogue between the verbal language and its different variations, the which may bring some kind of difficulty to the students during the test, it is expected that such results will be discussed with the faculty of the school and enable them to fully understand the Prova Brasil.
