The present work analyzes certain conceptions of the language undergradu­ates from UFRPE/UAG, regarding actions related to the grading / evaluation of written texts produced by second-year high-school students, in the classroom environment. For this purpose, four graduate students collaborated by answering questionnaires, inter­views and evaluate, reflect and interfere in texts produced by basic education students. Our research is based on Luckesi (2011) and Ferreira and Leal (2007) on school evalu­ation; in Suassuna (2007) and Marcuschi (2004, 2007 and 2012) in relation to assess­ment in Portuguese; and the reflections of Ruiz (2001) about categories evaluating writ­ten texts. The results showed the predominance of both resolute and textual-interactive correction on the texts evaluated by the undergraduate students, and these, discursively, showed a constant mix of conflict between "old" and "new" assessment practices.
