Public policies education and teachers’ evaluation: considerations about Brazil and Chile (1990 – 2010)

Abstract

In this article, the teacher evaluation established from the 1990s in Chile and Brazil is in focus. It is organized in the following order: first, we will present an overview of the public policy of teacher training in Latin America over the last 30 years. Second, we will address the common recommendations made by international organizations. Third, we will describe the evaluation systems of public teachers in Brazil and Chile. Finally, we will compare these systems from the point of view of their blessings for continued teacher training. As a result, we suggest a review of Latin American guidelines for evaluation of teaching with the use of information and communication technologies.
