    Avaliação em alfabetização
    (2005) OLIVEIRA, João Batista Araújo e
    The paper discusses how a wrong definition and partial understanding of the skills involved in teaching to read and write can lead to the development of assessments which do not allow correct inferences about the reading and writing competencies acquired by students. In particular, the confusion between reading and understanding precludes the correct interpretation of test results. The author suggests that the definition and competencies shared by the international academic community might be more adequate to assess beginning reading and writing skills.

    Construtivismo e alfabetização: um casamento que não deu certo
    (2002) OLIVEIRA, João Batista Araújo e
    This article has three objectives: to present the assumptions of constructivist literacy proposals, demonstrate how empirical evidence points to the misunderstanding of these proposals, and suggest new ways to resume the literacy issue from a solid base of scientific, theoretical and empirical knowledge , which would allow Brazil to surpass the position of last place in the world ranking of quality in teaching reading and writing (OECD, 2001 ). The article is divided into six parts. In the first part, it analyzes the constructivist literacy proposals. In the following three, it presents some considerations of a logical nature and empirical evidence that demonstrate the mistake of constructivist presuppositions, hypotheses and methods. In the fifth part it analyzes possible causes of the popularity of constructivism and in the sixth part it presents suggestions and points out ways to replace the literacy problem.
