Between reality and desire: A vision of guidance

Resumen

We’ll be trying here in this paper to put forward the importance of aspects such as: collaboration, networking and the development of innovation educational projects as an essential foundation of psicopedagogical counselling in a school centre. Collaborative work between professionals who are engaged in different ways, inside and outside the educational institution, as well as the adviser as developer of educational changes with an improvement design, are not only the starting point of our compromise but also a desirable goal. We shall start our work proceeding to a necessary clarification of terms, taking into account the varied acceptions of the term, and will go on with our conceptualization of the way in which we understand the assessorship actions and the specific kind of assessors we are talking about. It is true that we’ll give a reference to the great variety of types of assessor which it is possible to find at education at the moment, but the important thing is the fact that we’ll come to terms with the internal assessor work in a school centre. We will be initially concerned with the complex situation in which assessor profiles and functions are embedded. As it was mentioned, the focus of our work will be the internal assessor (with a school orientation) and we’ll try to analyse the situation of his or her work within the context of the Galician education system, with the intention of moving on from practice to theory and from theory to practice. In tis way, we can say our work is placed within the framework of a biographical perspective in the construction of assessorship actions.
