RANGEL, Jurema Nogueira Mendes and GARFINKEL, Mirian. The portfolio and the authorship of thought: a study in the Psychopedagogy. Rev. psicopedag. [online]. 2007, vol.24, n.73, pp.9-17. ISSN 0103-8486.
This work analyzes the use of the portfolio in the course of specialization in Psychopedagogy, aiming at the process of construction of the authorship of thought. The contributions of Fernández, Andrade, Foucault, Freire, Orlandi on authorship and Villas Boas and others on portfolio had served of theoretical support for a study of qualitative character of a research-action, where the questionnaire was the instrument of collection of data applied to 24 students of a private university, in 2005. The results demonstrate the unfamiliarity of the students regarding the portfolio; the understanding of the portfolio, initially, come back toward the evaluation and the recognition of that the portfolio assists the construction of the authorship of thought. It is concluded that the portfolio contributes for the formation of professionals capable to think with autonomy, needing to be implemented in the superior courses.
