PEREIRA, Íris; BRAGAI, Ana Cristina  y  RIANO, Xosé González. Evaluation of the National Program of Portuguese Language Teaching (PNEP) in primary school: Students' perceptions. Rev. Port. de Educação [online]. 2015, vol.28, n.2, pp.51-86. ISSN 0871-9187.

This article presents a study of students' perceptions about the National Program of Portuguese Language Teaching (PNEP), an in-service program for primary school teachers aimed at improving the teaching and the learning of Portuguese language and implemented in the context of professional activity. The results of the quantitative analysis of data, collected through a survey questionnaire administered to students at the end of the 2009-2010 year in the regional center located at the University of Minho, reveal very positive representations about the learning process and about the contents of learning. These data point to the validity of the language pedagogy design that supported PNEP, illustrate the positive perception that teachers revealed on their own professional development and emerge as an illustrative case of the feasibility of conducting surveys with primary-school children.
