Resumo

Este artigo apresenta o processo de criação e validação de um sistema para a avaliação da escrita. Discutem-se dois processos centrais: validação do construto e das instruções de escrita nas provas avaliativas, e projeção e validação das ferramentas de avaliação. A validação do construto requereu sua definição e alinhamento com os padrões de escrita e com as tarefas avaliativas. Para validar as tarefas, analisou-se seu conteúdo, respondendo a um conjunto de critérios para a projeção apropriada de atividades de escrita e fazendo enquetes aos estudantes participantes sobre sua compreensão das instruções. Por último, foram elaboradas grades de avaliação como ferramentas de medição e sua validade determinou-se por meio do alinhamento com os padrões e o construto, e o cálculo da confiabilidade interna entre avaliadores (r > 0,7).
