RESUMO

This piece of work describes the results obtained from a qualitative research supported by descritions about an on-line collaborative post graduation course which has focus the students´ evaluation process. The investigation showed, in result of the possibilities opened to the people by new technologies of information and communication, that the learning evaluation can´t be limitted to the tests logic, in a definitive and post-processual way, but should be spread to all moments, manners, activities and practices existing in a course environment. This multidimensional approach is able to handle with the complexity of the pertinent knowledge, considering the multiple possibilities of interaction, the different times and places of learning and teaching with their equivalent interfaces as well as the interdisciplinary approaches existing in the analized collaborative environment. The theoretical references are used in order to contextualize the evaluation and its predominant practice as well as the several aspects of information and communication technologies applied to education. Based on these two main views, other concepts had been treated in the theoretical field, as complexity, collaboration, time, space, interdisciplinarity, among others. These concepts permitted to this research support itself in a set of ideas from which the analisys were done, in order to show wide possibilities of multidimensional learning evaluation on collaborative on-line environments, which oportunize individual aims adjustment to teachers and students based on a pedagogical strategy that privileges dialetically the colletive knowledge construction and the autonomy. This investigation also showed people´s relevance, more than technologies, as well as the importance of collaboration among people, in order to provide a wide evaluation, considering individual trajectories, because each participant has a personal history and a set of knowledges acquired of several sources.
