A reorganized version of standards to be utilized for those who are involved with educational evaluation in Brazil was the result of a critical review of evaluation standards which were originally elaborated by the Joint Committee on Standards for Educational Evaluation. The conceptual framework for the critical review comprised logical principles. Different methodological procedures--connection, complementation and formulation--were applied during this review. The reorganized version includes 20 standards: six related to utility aspects, three concerned with feasibility, five dealing with propriety features, and six related to accuracy characteristics of evaluations.
