Abstract
DIAS, Maria Leonor da Costa; LOUREIRO, Maria João de Miranda Nazaré and LOUREIRO, Maria Isabel Guedes. Health Education Projects in schools: From evaluation to reference practices. Rev. Port. de Educação [online]. 2013, vol.26, n.1, pp.287-306. ISSN 0871-9187.
Planning pertinent and efficient interventions within Health Education (HE) in schools determines the implementation of evaluation procedures that should not only translate an analysis of the developed action, but also contribute for a reflection about the implementation process of HE in Portuguese schools. This, in fact, aims for a search of a qualitative optimization of the interventions. According to the previous assumptions, we intend to establish a link between the theoretical analysis and the practical reflection, on the basis of a concrete practice. Therefore, the present article has the following main objectives: (i) to present the evaluation model used in a multicases study of qualitative nature: "School, Health and Society: Evaluation Studies of Health Education Projects", which was developed between 2009/2011; and (ii) to disseminate the reference practices related to the dynamics of one Health Education project, which evidenced to correspond to the defined quality criteria for a ‘good’ project.
