Journal Article
The State of the Art of Scientific Journal Evaluations in Brazil and in the Field of Education
2025
Overview
Objective: This study investigates the evaluation of scientific journals in Brazil, specifically in the field of Education. Its goal is to map the state of the art, identify academic publications, and critically analyze the quality criteria used in the Qualis/CAPES evaluation system. Theoretical Framework: The research is based on theorists such as Paulo Freire, Addor (2019), Bastos (2010), and Vogel (2017), addressing themes like scientific assessment, bibliometric indicators, and Education as a tool for transformation. Method: Th A qualitative literature review was conducted between 2020 and 2022 as part of a scientific initiation project. Searches spanned five databases—SciELO, CAPES Periodicals, ScienceDirect, Google Scholar, and Redalyc.org—targeting the period from 2010 to 2020 and using keywords related to journal evaluation in Education. Results and Discussion: The review found a wide range of critical literature, especially concerning the Qualis model’s emphasis on quantitative metrics. While Education graduate programs have grown, regional disparities persist. Discussions highlight limitations in current bibliometric systems and the importance of incorporating qualitative assessments. Research Implications: The research contributes to debates on evaluation policies across a wide range of fields, especially education, helping institutions and researchers to reflect on the scientific measurement methods used in the country. Originality/Value: This work is original in its targeted focus on the Education field and in offering a critical synthesis of academic production, questioning dominant evaluative frameworks.
