The research is characterized as a case study that has as approach, the qualitative-quantitative research and exploratory. The data was collected by surveying the target audience, which are, teachers and students of the Graduation UCBS of the UFPB, Campus I, João Pessoa. Data analysis and interpretation were performed through content analysis. The results indicate that, both teachers and students associate the theme and different conceptions. Thus, the evaluation of learning has been conceived in the Graduation CBS mediated by several different visions and practices, in which the evaluation is still carried out only by traditional logic, in which elements of action of verification of learning are preserved through isolated moments that occur through the application of exams.
