Tutoring is one of the educational act ivities that accompanies, mediates and guides the student at the semipresential Distance Education (D.Ed.). This study intends, in general, to evaluate the performance of the tutor. Specifically, this study intends to know the necessary knowledges in teaching formation for an effective performance; to analyze the application of those knowledges and evaluate them in the performance of the tutor of semipresential courses of D.Ed. in Universidade Federal do Ceará (UFC). Thus, it was accomplished a literature revew about Education in three dimensions: Higher Education and D. Ed.; teaching formation: tutoring and formation with a discussion of the knowledges in its attitudinal, conceptual and procedural dimensions, under pedagogical, didact and technological perspectives; and Educational Assessment concerning to learning evaluation and formative evaluation. The nature of this investigation characterized the study as an exploratory, traverse and quantitative one, achieved in Instituto Universidade Virtual. The sample was applied in 175 tutors and 1.957 students enrolled in 7 undergraduate courses at the first semester of 2011, in the modality of D. Ed. The data were obtained through a likert scale with 16 items and analyzed by the software SPSS version 15.0. The applied scale presented a precision of high sensibility and standard error lower than 10% of the amplitude of the scale. The content validity was accomplished through factorial analysis that indicated that the scale is unifatorial. The distribution of total scale scores was converted into a scale of grades [0;10]; it presented, in the sample, average 7,7, median 8,4 and coefficient of variation 28,2, with the population average varying in the interval [7,6;7,8] for a confidence interval of 95%. The distribution of the grades is nonstandard, according to test of normality of Kolmorogov-Smirnov, with the concentration of the grades in values above the average (median 8,4). In the linear regression analysis of the knowledges, the standard coefficients indicated that the conceptual dimension was stronger in the composition of the grade. The attitudinal dimension came in second place and the procedural presented was weaker. Therefore, this dimension deserves to be more studied and investigated, because is related to didact knowledge, to doing knowledge in the performance of the tutor in D. Ed. The analysis of the results indicated that the students evaluated the performance of the tutors classifying it in levels from regular to good.
