ANTUNEZ PEREZ, Ángel Z.  y  ARANGUREN RINCON, Carmen. Physical education evaluation, teacher’s scientific and social path. La Revista Venezolana de Educación (Educere) [online]. 2005, vol.9, n.31, pp.481-486. ISSN 1316-4910.

This article aims to analyze some physical education evaluation proposals from the educator’s prototype; verifying where and how changes are produced and what kind of challenge they represent for the teacher in the sport’s area. To accomplish this, some theoretical approaches forming the basis for rethinking evaluation methods are presented: its conceptions, practical and theoretical foundations; power relationships; current situation; and the different models interpreting it. These approaches constitute an indispensable tool to understand transformations, innovations, complexity and eclecticisms that give sense to evaluation from different perspectives.
