Luis Duque de Almeida, who left office in September last year, referred to the generalization of digital correction to the national final exams of secondary education, a process that is wrapped in controversy, with the grades only starting to be published on Friday and even so with many students without access to classification, appearing only “suspended” in the agenda.
The person responsible spoke in an interview with Rádio Renascença, when he expressed strangeness that the Minister of Education announced last year the extension of digital correction to all tests, after having happened in that year only the experimental correction of the tests of Philosophy.
Luís Duque de Almeida presided over this experimental phase but ceased to be president of the jury on September 9, last year.
“To preserve my health. I didn’t want to be in this situation and I knew that things could go this way,” because I like to work with the planned things, I now told the Renaissance.
During the interview, he insisted on the strangeness that the minister decided to move forward and not have asked the National Examination Jury for any balance sheet or information. And you didn’t ask the EduQa Institute. Luís Duke had been responsible for the digital correction of the evidence of philosophy and nothing was asked of him.
“We were of the opinion that one could not generalize. I do not know with what information the minister made the decision,” he said in the interview, stating that there were “some constraints” in the case of Philosophy.
Because it is a “very complex” process should not be done so quickly, it was necessary to improve and rethink the process, justified in the interview.
