This research deals with the evaluated instruments and criteria, in the context of learning
assessment, by enabling reflections and dialogues, based on the experiences of undergraduate
students in Biological Sciences and Chemistry. Understanding the importance of training these
students, this research aims to develop a proposal for initial training, based on the statements
of undergraduates on learning assessment, instruments and evaluation criteria at the Federal
Institute of Education, Science and Technology of Amazonas - IFAM Campus Manaus Center.
Therefore, it presents the evaluation of learning, instruments and evaluation criteria in teacher
education, based on the views of Luckesi (2011), Perrenoud (1999), Pacheco (2002), Rossit and
Storani (2010), among others. The research results from an exploratory and descriptive study,
with a qualitative approach. For this, we used the questionnaire as an instrument, with questions
that focus on the academic experiences of the undergraduates. Data were organized and
interpreted using the Content Analysis Technique (Bardin, 2009), divided into three phases: 1)
pre-analysis; 2) exploration of the material (coding and categorization) and 3) treatment of
results: inference and interpretation of data. To evaluate the educational product, we submit to
an Ad Hoc Committee, formed by specialist teachers, masters and doctors who work in basic
and higher education and in training courses for teachers in public institutions. Thus, the results
of the analyzes indicate that the undergraduates understand about the assessment of learning
and the relevance of establishing instruments and criteria that serve to diagnose, monitor and
intervene in the evaluation process, as well as pointing out that the most used instruments, from
their experiences are objective and discursive tests, and little used, consider pre-tests and
cooperative assessment. As for the evaluators trained by the Ad Hoc Committee, they issued a
favorable opinion to the educational product, considering it valid in its objective of contributing
to the training of licentiates.
