O declínio dos polinizadores como questão sóciocientífica no ensino de ciências naturais: uma abordagem freiriana

Abstract

This work seeks to validate a teaching material involving the theme "decline of pollinators" as a Socio-Scientific Question in the teaching of natural sciences, taking into account Paulo Freire's educational perspective in a way that can show a new look at teaching. Thus, the general objective of the research is to elaborate and validate a didactic sequence from a socio-scientific question about the decline of pollinators in the context of the CTSA perspective and the Freirean pedagogy. Given this process, the specific objective was considered: A-Identify the potential and limitations of the didactic proposal for the critical and reflective training of students by teachers of basic education. Discussions about the approaches that surround Science-Technology-Society-Environment (CTSA) take from the Socio-Scientific Questions (QSC) new discussions and methods to be worked within the Teaching of Natural Sciences with problematizations and questions about the present day socially lived by students and in the educational process. This work is of a qualitative nature, serving a descriptive research (describing situations presented) and at the same time interpretive based on the interpretations of the facts collected during the research. The research results were satisfactory, where we can present, discuss and build new paths from the presented elements. Generative themes such as the decline of pollinators, contribute to a different look at teaching, bringing the knowledge that supports the QSC to the center of the learning process. The educator Paulo Freire allied the QSC within a discussion CTSA reflects a teaching that leads to the formation of these subjects, both political, critical, ideological and values, capable of intervening in the world and transforming them.
