MURIEL-MUNOZ, Luz Enid; GOMEZ-VAHOS, Luz Estela  and  LONDONO-VASQUEZ, David Alberto. The richness of evaluation in school, an unhidden treasure. Prax. Saber [online]. 2020, vol.11, n.25, pp.111-130.  Epub Feb 23, 2021. ISSN 2216-0159.  https://doi.org/10.19053/22160159.v11.n25.2020.9359.

This article provides some reflections about: the evaluation potential that is found in the diverse school experiences of the students; the importance of defining the evaluation purpose from its ethical dimension; and how, thanks to evaluation, it is possible to provide visibility for the construction of learning by transcending the conception of evaluation as a measurement and quantification instrument. Therefore, a relation is established between some daily situations in the educational environment and the characteristics of evaluation as a resource, the ethical principles that govern the evaluation, and the needs of the younger generations for the consolidation of a new world available for them, which allows for the development of their cognitive, creative, affective, and social potential.

Keywords : evaluation; learning; school; purpose; diversity.
