The assessment of school learning, even constituting as a set of practices indispensable to the teaching-learning process, is practiced in a wrong way on several occasions.

The research had a qualitative character, being developed initially making a bibliographical study on the subject and, later, a field study, in which an open interview was conducted. Data were categorized, studied and discussed. Through the analysis of the results, it was noticed that although some students demonstrate knowledge about the evaluation process, many still have a divergent conception of the real essence of the evaluation, understanding it, in many cases, only as a way to verify and quantify. knowledge, and not as a set of actions aimed at mediating and optimizing the educational process.
