  • Mathematics teaching happens through the use of signs with their senses and meanings within the conceptual frameworks of established numerical sets and according to the composition, function or representation of quantification, measurement, ordering, valuation and coding. The present research aimed to understand the importance of numerals as mathematical signs for the development of Higher Forms of Conduct - calculus and arithmetic - in subtraction in the early years of Elementary School. In our work, we are concerned with seeking actions that provide the understanding of signs, symbols that have become signs, that is, random graphic records that have social meaning and the student is responsible for assigning a personal meaning and knowing their use and their role within society. and in relationships with other human beings. In this dynamic, the teacher plays an important role in helping the student to understand the senses and meanings historically and culturally attributed to the signs used in mathematics, the focus of this work being the operation of subtraction. In this way, the teacher, from teaching actions that aim at human development, will mediate the appropriation of strategies, superior forms of calculation and arithmetic behavior that help the learner to apply them in their daily lives. Based on the assumptions of Historical-Cultural Theories, Developmental Teaching and Historical-Critical Pedagogy, this investigation sought in bibliographic studies subsidies to achieve the proposed objective. and meanings depends primarily on the appropriation of this knowledge by teachers, whether in the initial training of the profession or in-service training and finally in the teaching actions planned with the purpose of developing the expansion of this knowledge as well as its transmission. The Educational Product is composed of a mini-course proposal with dialogic activities that promote thought actions to understand the sign.

  • This master's research proposes a reflection on ethnic-racial issues that we believe constitute a contribution inspired by ethical and scientific principles. It is aimed at science teachers and students and the public interested in the subject. As a result of the investigative process and based on the field of references used to give coherence and articulation to our work, the Educational Product proposed here consists, in addition to an already published article, also of a second piece whose corresponding questionnaire that emerges from the article was conceived in a semi-structured way to be applied to the participants of a research group, composed of students in the area of science, a group that will analyze and issue their impressions; in this context, each of its members will seek their respective understandings of the discussions held therein. We hope, as a result advanced here, to conclude in favor of the pertinence and relevance of this present contribution to knowledge, a contribution that we believe to be grounded in appropriate scientific, ethical, political, historical and philosophical references, as well as, and not least, also that it is an adequate contribution to encourage affirmative anti-racist behavior that gives rise to the potential to promote fraternity, solidarity, empathy and collaboration based on the highest human dignity, inside and outside the walls of the educational institution to which we belong.

  • IThis research aimed to investigate how collaborative continuing education could help Natural Sciences teachers in understanding interdisciplinarity during the re-elaboration of Study Guides (SG) produced during Emergency Remote Teaching (ERT). It is a qualitative research, of the Collaborative Research type (IBIAPINA, 2008), and was developed with Natural Sciences teachers from a public school in the state network of Alagoas, in a city in the backlands of the state. With regard to instruments and strategies for data collection, the research consisted of the following steps: I) collaborative meeting, used to present the research to the participants and negotiate their roles throughout the research; II) diagnostic interview to learn about the participants' profiles and their prior knowledge about continuing education, interdisciplinarity and SG; III) reflective interview, to promote reflection on the process of elaborating the SG and the interdisciplinarity present in the scripts prepared by the participating teachers during the ERT; IV) reflective sessions, in order to understand interdisciplinarity through theoretical references and didactic materials for the re-elaboration of the SG. The collected data were analyzed according to the qualitative analysis (Yin, 2016). The results indicate that the collaborative research allowed teachers to reframe the meaning of continuing education, since they initially understood that this process was only formative when done by mediators outside the school. Through theoretical deepening and exchange of experiences during the research stages, they also re-signified the sense of interdisciplinarity, which led them to a critical reflection and to the action of re-elaboration of the SG, as they found during the reflective sessions that the scripts produced during the ERT they had more traces of multidisciplinarity than interdisciplinarity. The educational product constructed was a guide containing instructions on how to build a study script and exposing the script re-elaborated by the Natural Sciences teachers who participated in this research.

  • The present dissertation aimed to analyze the area of knowledge of Mathematics of the initial years of Elementary School, in particular the contents of statistics from the Buriti plus Mathematics collection. The study is a research that is based on the historical-dialectical materialism, which is of the documentary type. We aim at special that the interest of the study was to analyze the section understand information of Mathematics textbooks for the literacy cycle (1st, 2nd and 3rd years). The discussion was based on historical-critical pedagogical theory, the main analysis categories were: teaching mathematics, teaching statistics and dealing with knowledge, this last category deals mainly with the organization methodology that the teacher develops in the school environment. Starting at observations and analysis, we found that the textbooks analyzed have dedicated to offering education based on skills and abilities, which are characterized by a set of alphanumeric codes. The pedagogical activities are developed through problem solving, which point to the students' daily lives. We infer that the path that textbooks have taken on the basis of the BNCC are increasingly hasty in relation to the student learning. We verified in the course of the analysis that the skills and competences are what guide the teaching and learning processes. The point starting point is always the same, problem solving and the empirical life of the student. Although this type of teaching is increasingly present in school institutions, we do not give up an education committed to the human development.

  • This work aimed to investigate, from the proposition of a type of mathematical task using Problem Solving on Financial Mathematics and the handling of the Maguerez Arc, the negotiations, rules, ruptures and renegotiations of the Didactic Contract, as well as the escape of the perverse effects of the Didactic Contract, and contributions to the construction of new knowledge, based on Communicative Action and Pedagogical Discourse in a class of the 3rd grade of High School. We chose as reference the Theory of Didactic Situations and the notion of Didactic Contract (BROUSSEAU, 1986), the Theory of Communicative Action (HABERMAS, 1988), the Theory of Pedagogical Discourse (BERNSTEIN, 1996), Problem Solving (PROENÇA, 2018). ) and the methodology of problematization with the Arch of Maguerez (BORDENAVE; PEREIRA, 2015). We opted for a qualitative research methodology (LUDKE; ANDRÉ, 2018) through a case study (YIN, 2010), which included the analysis of didactic phenomena in the classroom space, considering the contribution of Communicative Action - the from questions asked by the teacher and students –, from the Pedagogical Discourse, from Problem Solving and from the Arch of Maguerez. As data collection instruments we used participant observation, videography, audio recording, a priori and a posteriori questionnaires and activities contained in the Educational Product originated from this dissertation. In general, we identified that the Didactic Contract negotiations are not enough in the management of knowledge, with ruptures and renegotiations happening so that teaching and learning can take place. As a contributor to the renegotiation of the Didactic Contract, we point out the teacher's mediation, through the types of questions considering the Communicative Action and the ideas of rhythm and sequencing of the Pedagogical Discourse Theory. With regard to problem solving, we point out the contribution of the work with guiding situations that consider reality as a starting point and application in it (Arco de Maguerez), allowing reading, interpretation, analysis, data processing, results and the implications of the numerical results about what is being investigated. However, although the functions and roles of the student and the teacher have become clear in the development of the problem-type task, at times it was evidenced that possible effects of the Didactic Contract could happen, but that the teacher's action, making the intermediation, taking the students to think, questioning them and giving them time to carry out their tasks, was decisive for the escape from these effects. With this, we understand that the learning situations are not unilateral, but that, when considering the reality and the communicative action in the work with the resolution of problems, being in evidence the functions of the teacher and the student through the negotiations and renegotiations of the Contract Didactic, learning can become autonomous and spontaneous. Therefore, we believe that the development of the study contributed to the development of learning skills (critical thinking, creativity, collaboration and communication), literacy skills (informational) and life skills (flexibility, leadership, initiative and productivity).

  • The present work aims to investigate how a Potentially Significant Teaching Unit, a UEPS, based on the theory of Meaningful Learning by (MOREIRA, 2010, 2011, 2012) can contribute to the construction of the concept of investments in a 2nd grade class of High School at a private school in Maceió, in the State of Alagoas. For that, through a qualitative research based on intervention, a UEPS was elaborated composed of a didactic sequence that presents important elements for the re-signification of the students' previous knowledge about the addressed theme, aiming to develop, still, the students' criticality to the light of the assumptions of Critical Mathematics Education (SKOVSMOSE, 2001). In this sense, we sought to encourage students to build and develop argumentative and reflective processes in the face of problem situations that involved choices and risks in relation to the investment scenario, providing an environment in which they are protagonists of the learning process, from the use of of the active methodology of Problem-Based Learning, the PBL. The proposed didactic sequence presents six blocks of activities involving the concepts that make up the investment area, such as types of investments, angel investor, decision making, venture capital, risks, ending with activities that propose a more practical contact with the simulators of investments and the construction of a conceptual map, the main assessment tool in a UEPS (MOREIRA, 2012), in addition to two questionnaires, a priori and a posteriori, which served to identify and characterize the profile and mathematical knowledge of students, enabling the assessment of UEPS identifying the financial literacy rates after the activities performed. For data analysis, we used content analysis, creating categories. Therefore, the results showed that the proposed UEPS can significantly contribute to the construction of the concept of investments in High School, giving new meaning to the students' prior knowledge, in addition to the development of their criticality in situations in which they need to expose their arguments to justify certain choices, as well as places the theme investments as essential in the approach of Financial Education in High School, breaking with the paradigm that investing is necessary a high value. On the other hand, the work with the PBL highlighted the students' difficulty in following scripts to solve problems, corroborating what Viana and Lozada (2020) write about the fact that some steps of the PBL are neglected by the students, who suggested , in turn, a reconstruction of the methodology with reduced steps.

  • Literature is an art that is based on its multidisciplinary relationship of the use of literary text, based on the use of this practice for applicability in science teaching, this research aims to use a literary work for science classes. We investigated how the application of the Legend of the Baobab occurs for the teaching of science and its nuances for both scientific theory and practice and literary reading. So how to understand, what are the didactic potentialities of the Legend of Baobá for the Teaching of Sciences in the early grades of elementary school. Aiming to understand the metabolism of structured capital in racism and sexism and its phenomenal manifestations in teaching; reflect on the potentialities and limits of the Teaching of Anti-racist Sciences in the capitalist logic and develop proposal of science teaching for the initial series of elementary school using the Black-Brazilian literature of enchantment. Therefore, through a children’s Afro-Brazilian literary adaptation contributing through teaching to think possibilities for anti-racist teaching with a view to thinking about a new society, as well as a reflective education, for knowledge will possibly make the child, the youth and the adult unsuitable for contemporary slavery, even if it is necessary to go to the fight daily

  • To Bachelard (2005) the scientific spirit develops through ruptures with common sense and with the preconceptions of spontaneous thinking. This premise underlies the idea that non-scientific knowledge is classified as intuitive and devoid of the problematic character of science. In the understanding of Bachelard (2005), the science based on this clear model becomes pernicious for the development of the scientific spirit, this is because being an evident science it immobilizes the evolution of knowledge. We believe that bringing this reflection on Bachelard’s (2005), for the didactic scope can contribute to practices that teach students to perceive science in a problematic way, reflective, controversial, constructive, and mainly guided by the rectifying dynamics of knowledge, which means that knowledge is not constituted by a sum of ideas, but by the rupture of theories and laws. To reflect on Bachelard's thinking in teaching practice, we bring as a starting point the teaching of science by investigation, this is because this teaching approach is not limited to manipulating objects involved in science activities. It is a mark of this approach to encourage students to develop actions that in the words of Bachelard (2005,

    p. 24) is designated as “[…] dialetizar todas as variáveis experimentais, oferecer enfim à razão razões para evoluir.”. These actions in science teaching by investigation can be classified as: design and test hypotheses, interpretation, recording and comparison of data, as well as debates, justifications, arguments, and explanations of ideas. Given these questions, we emphasize that the general objective of this study is to reflect on the epistemology of Gaston Bachelard and its possible contributions to the teaching of science, from the teaching of science by investigation. In this sense, we are carrying out qualitative bibliographic research with the intention of answering the following research problem: from the teaching of sciences through investigation, how is it possible to think about didactic practices that are close to Bachelard's epistemology? As a methodological path we are carrying out readings in primary and secondary research sources of the works of Gaston Bachelard, as well as readings on inquiry-based science teaching. From this action, we have been resorting to Bardin's (2011) categorical analysis, as a way of treating and organizing data that demonstrate possible approximations and distances from Bachelard’s thinking and the teaching of science by investigation. Based on the elements that emerged from the categories, we are doing content analysis, which has allowed us to identify that there are indications pointing to the following question: science teaching by investigation has some characteristics that, in the didactic context, can bring Bachelard's postulates closer to science teaching practices. This approximation can be verified from the analysis of categories that point to elements that are related between the two objects of study treated here, some of them being: the problem as a driving force in the construction of knowledge; error as a singular issue to produce scientific knowledge; intellectual authority as a founding element for the development of authentic science.

  • Represented through silence and invisibility, within a context of struggles and challenges, women have been conquering their space and making themselves present in environments previously said to be masculine, such as in the field of Science. And nowadays much has been discussed about professional opportunities aimed at women. Thus, in view of this fact, we ask: What actions can be proposed in the classroom to raise students' awareness and reflection in relation to the female role in Science in the educational context? In this context, the present work has the general objective of proposing discussion and interaction in the classroom about female protagonism in Science, problematizing female representation and the challenges faced by female scientists in the search for equality. Based on an activity plan for the Science discipline, which presents a proposal for a Didactic Sequence (DS) for teaching gender equality to Elementary School students, having. Thus, the SD, in addition to promoting dialogic and interactive participation between teacher-student and student-student, helps the student in the practice of a certain textual genre. The research presents a qualitative approach capable of integrating the research objective, so that the question of meaning acts in the construction and transformation of significant social structures. The research subjects will be a 9th grade class, from the morning shift, from the Municipal School of Basic Education Maria Augusta Silva Melo, located in the municipality of Olho d'Água das Flores, Al. The instruments for data collection will be a questionnaire with eight questions to identify the students' prior knowledge about the role of women in Science, and the making of comic strips focused on the trajectory of the scientist Prof. Dr. Graziela Maciel Barroso. The SD presents planned activities in light of the Critical Meaningful Learning Theory (TASC). For data verification, Content Analysis will be used, it is organized in three phases, (i) pre-analysis, (ii) codification and (iii) treatment of the obtained results/interpretation. From this perspective, it is believed that students learn better when they are involved with relevant concepts that help them connect with the content they are studying.

  • The representation of geometric solids in three-dimensional space is a task that generates difficulties for the teacher who needs to do it and much more for the student who needs to visualize them, often considering having difficulties related to abstraction and the sense of dimensionality, and which commonly occurs on the whiteboard or through resources that do not favor this visualization. In this way, the present work sought to answer the following question: How the use of the VolumAR application, from the perspective of the Gamification methodology, can contribute to the learning of volume of Geometric Solids (Cube, Parallelepiped, Cone, Pyramid, Cylinder and Sphere )? For this, we have listed as a general objective to understand how the use of the VolumAR application, from the perspective of the Gamification methodology, can contribute to the learning of the volume of Geometric Solids. As specific objectives, we seek to identify the perspectives and limitations of using the VolumAR application from the perspective of Gamification for learning the volume of Geometric Solids; to verify how the use of the VolumAR application collaborated in the resolution of problems with the volume of Geometric Solids; and to evaluate the perceptions of the research participants about the experience of using the VolumAR application from the perspective of the Gamification methodology for learning the volume of geometric solids. The research developed was of a qualitative type, with an intervention research approach and was carried out in a 3rd grade high school class, composed of 26 students, aged between 17 and 19 years old, belonging to the Padre Antônio Duarte State School, located in city of Olho d'Água das Flores – AL. For data collection, we used the VolumAR application, the semi-structured interview, observations, field diary and photographic, audio and video recordings as instruments, which were analyzed taking as a reference what the content analysis proposed by Bardin (2016) proposes. Data analysis was divided into 03 categories of analysis through: Technological characterization of the participants; AR analysis and Gamification as resources for learning the volume of Geometric Solids; and Contributions from the VolumAR app. Based on the results and established findings, it was possible to state that the study in question reached the objectives outlined and that it attributes a lot of collaboration to the area of Mathematics Education, since it encompasses a scenario full of possibilities for learning the volume of geometric solids, linking the use of modern technology and methodology, not recent, but capable of engaging and arousing curiosity in students.

  • This dissertation aims to analyze the stated practices about the use of Digital Information and Communication Technologies (TDIC) of a teacher of the initial years in Mathematics classes in times of Covid-19, from the experiences lived through non-face-to-face activities. To this end, we start from the question: In what way, the declared practices about the use of Digital Technologies of Information and Communication (TDIC) of a teacher of the initial years in the classes of Mathematics classes in times of Covid-19, from the experiences lived through non-face-to-face activities, contributed to the production of mathematical knowledge? In this sense, we seek to echo the voice of the teacher who teaches Mathematics in her experience with the TDIC in the modality of the initial years. Specifically, it was intended: to understand the practices of a teacher of the early years about the DIDs as powerful artifacts for the pedagogical process ; identify which TDIC the early years teacher used in math classes in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic; and to ascertain the formative trajectory related to the teaching of Mathematics and with the use of TDIC for integration in their classes. In methodological terms, the research is of a qualitative nature based on the netnographic approach, that is, adapting the procedures of ethnography, with online community extracting the registration data of memories, experiences and teacher experiences that inaugurate a place about an adverse scenario of education, along with the teaching of Mathematics and the TDIC that result in traces and clues to reflect the practices declared as production of experiential, formative and mathematical knowledge. To constitute the corpus, a structured interview was used, seeking to emphasize the teacher's practices of the early years that is part of a municipal school in the city of Rio Largo in Alagoas. For data analysis, we rely on Bardin's Content Analysis (CA) (2016). It was found that for Mathematics practices and the use of TDIC in the context of remote teaching, it required reorganization and diagnoses of the socioeconomic reality of the students, making the artifacts powerful for the pedagogical practice. Among the reorganizations, the use of DIDs became an integral part of teachers' practices. Among the TDICs, the use of the WhatsApp application stood out because it is accessible in the teacher, families and students relationship.

  • The National Curricular Common Base (BNCC) considers argumentation essential in the learning process, placing it as one of the general competences to be developed throughout Basic Education. In this sense, the present research aims to analyze what contributions the argumentative process in Probability classes in the 5th year of Elementary School can bring to the development of probabilistic thinking. Therefore, we carried out a qualitative research characterized by an intervention, in which a learning path with tasks and games was elaborated, in a mathematical investigation perspective (PONTE, 2003, 2005), involving concepts of probability, being applied to the 5th grade class. year of Elementary School at a private school in Maceió (AL). Based on discursive patterns such as the I-R-F (Initiation-Response-Feedback) and the I-R-A (Initiation-Response-Assessment) and on the argumentation models proposed by Toumin (1958) and Kosko (2018), we were able to analyze the discursive interactions of students while performing the tasks. Thus, we consider the theoretical constructs of Bardin (2011) on content analysis and of Caregnato and Mutti (2006) on discourse analysis as a data analysis instrument. The results showed that the researched group does not have the habit of arguing in Mathematics classes, since teaching is centered on solving exercises and problems in order to obtain a numerical answer without discussing it, which deprives students of the possibility of argumentation and exposition of reasoning, either orally or in writing. However, it was found that by using mathematical investigation strategies for learning the concepts of probability, with questions that allow for the argumentation and breaking of the I-R-F and I-R-A triad, students were able to substantiate and organize ideas that they were not able to expose before. In addition, the researched group showed resistance to the development of written arguments, certainly due to the absence of text production in Mathematics classes, as well as the preponderance given by social media to visual and oral aspects, in which short sentences with abbreviated words, make students' vocabulary smaller, which does not allow for the construction of conjectures and more robust justification structures. Finally, we also identify discursive patterns that escape triadic interaction (I-R-F and I-R-A), allowing for more consistent arguments to be triggered, which go beyond pure opinion, but which are based on criticality, defense, refutation, hypotheses and guarantee of what is being said or written, and it was demonstrated that the researched group managed to evolve in relation to the domain of the concepts of probability, concluding that the learning path contributed significantly in this process, recommending that teachers stimulate discursive interactions during classes of Mathematics so that argumentation becomes part of the teaching-learning process.

  • When dealing with the Teaching of Sciences with an investigative character, we start from the idea of a Teaching of Sciences that offers the student conditions and referrals that provide his interaction with scientific knowledge, so that from this approach of the field of investigation, it is possible to construction of this scientific field, considering the interactions with the world and its transformations, an element of great interest for the area of Science Teaching. When thinking about the planning of Science classes, it is important to reflect on the greater objective, which is the promotion of Scientific Literacy among students. In this way, the investigation consisted in the elaboration of an Investigative Teaching Sequence (SEI), entitled “Inventions for All Sides “Objects and Materials”, developed for a group of 2nd year of Fundamental of the municipal network of Igaci-AL. The objective is to analyze the contributions of an investigative teaching sequence, involving the ownership of materials, for the promotion of Scientific Literacy among students in the 2nd year of elementary school. In order to conduct the research, the starting point was the following problem: What are the contributions of an investigative teaching sequence, involving the ownership of materials, for the promotion of Scientific Literacy of students in the 2nd year of elementary school? Thus, through the qualitative approach, the methodological assumptions that directed to application research were brought. The development of this didactic sequence being the main element of data collection. The data will be evaluated considering the Scientific Literacy Indicators: Articulate ideas; Investigate; To argue; Read in Science; Writing in Science; Problematize; To create; Acting, Pizarro (2014). We can infer from the results obtained that the use of Children's Literature as a pedagogical resource in teaching promotes the inclusion of students in scientific culture. The intention of using an episode of Monteiro Lobato's work "History of Inventions" was due to the context in which it is presented to the public, with the purpose of expressing and presenting the relevance of the evolution of some objects over time, through of this pedagogical resource. This theme is punctuated by the National Common Curricular Base (2017) through the curricular component of natural sciences, which includes the thematic unit: Matter and Energy. It is possible to observe that some of the skills scored for this area are directly related to Chemistry contents that are embedded within the objects of knowledge of this science and are directly linked to properties and uses of materials, making it possible to score vestiges of Chemical Knowledge that can be presented from the Early Years of elementary school.

  • Starting from the guiding problem How does the insertion of Ethnomathematics, arising from elements present in Afro-Brazilian cultural manifestations, in Mathematics classes, contribute to the learning of Mathematics and Afro-Brazilian Culture of Basic Education students?, this research, developed in the Programa de Pós-graduação em Ensino de Ciências e Matemática (PPGECIM) of Universidade Federal de Alagoas (Ufal), aims to: 1) Understand which conception(s) Basic Education students have regarding Afro-Brazilian Culture and how they visualize the Mathematics exposed to them; 2) Identify possible existing Ethnomathematics in elements present in Afro-Brazilian cultural manifestations; 3) Develop didactic materials that make it possible to bring Ethnomathematics existing in elements present in Afro-Brazilian cultural manifestations to Basic Education students; 4) Organize the prepared teaching materials and their application scripts in a book to be made available online, which is the educational product resulting from the research. To meet these objectives and respond to the guiding problem, this research, of the qualitative type, with an interventional approach, had as its locus a school of the Public Education Network of the State of Alagoas, with the participation of 1st grade high school students and citizens practitioners of Afro-Brazilian culture. Because it is an interventional research, it is composed of pre-test, intervention and post-test. The pre-test consists of an initial diagnosis and a conversation wheel applied to participating students to achieve objective 1). Through the results of the pre-test, we set out to collect data, through semi-structured interviews, with citizens who practice Afro-Brazilian Culture who participated in the research to achieve objective 2). Through the results of the interviews, we developed three didactic materials that contemplate the objective 3) and applied to the participating students, being this part of the research intervention. The activities address the Ethnomathematics of Afro braids and Afro-Brazilian fashion. After the intervention, we applied the post-test, consisting of questions and subjective items to be completed by the students. By comparing the post-test with the pre-test, we can conclude that the students participating in this research developed an interest in learning and studying Mathematics, viewing it as a creative, living, dynamic discipline. About learning Mathematics, students expanded their understanding of the existence and application of Mathematics in everyday life, mainly in aspects of Afro-Brazilian Culture. In learning Afro-Brazilian Culture, students who initially could not name existing Afro-Brazilian cultural manifestations, learned not only about Afro braids and Afro-Brazilian fashion, but also learned a little about the history and meanings of Afro-Brazilian Culture. Brazilian culture, and types of music, dance and food considered Afro-Brazilian. Regarding the two Afro-Brazilian cultural manifestations worked with more intensity in the intervention, the students learned brief historical aspects, some types of braids, clothes, accessories, and some relationships with Mathematics exposed in the classroom. About the Ethnomathematics of Afro braids and Afro-Brazilian fashion, the students learned and/or improved their braiding techniques, to classify a piece of clothing according to its pattern and began to recognize that this knowledge derived from Afro-Brazilian Culture is Ethnomathematics and, therefore, use and allow the use of Mathematics exposed in the classroom. In view of this, we hope that this research will inspire other teachers and researchers to look more appreciatively at researching Afro-Brazilian Culture and working with their Basic Education students, emphasizing that there are customs and traditions commonly performed by them that come from the people African and, consequently, of the Afro-Brazilian Culture. We recognize that carrying out work and research like the one described here is a way of combating prejudices that were historically constructed and of recognizing black people and Afro-Brazilian Culture as something valuable to be considered, applauded, highlighted and a source of pride.

  • Science Teaching allows the perception of phenomena and their implications in human life, and in its surroundings, such perceptions are developed from the investigative property, generating argumentative capacity in the subjects and constant search for answers, because Science is alive and is done of the constant need for knowledge. Put in the curriculum since Kindergarten, it creates possibilities for the child to understand the phenomena that are present in everyday life, giving real and not magical explanations, building bases for abstract thinking, based on interaction and orality/argumentation. In this sense, this research aims to develop a methodological proposal for the construction of experiences with the theme Water in Early Childhood Education, taking into account the perspective of Scientific Literacy, the learning objectives of the BNCC, as well as the guiding axes and the rights of learning within the Young Children Age Group, in an Early Childhood Education class composed of 16 children, in the Sertão of Alagoas. Thus, it was necessary to weave a small theoretical dialogue about Early Childhood Education historically and analyze official documents in a historical line in order to perceive Science Teaching in Early Childhood Education in this timeline in official documents, to theorize about scientific literacy and/in Education Kindergarten and apply a didactic sequence to help with experiences on the topic of Water in Early Childhood Education, in order to analyze how/whether young children build Scientific Literacy indicators. The present research is based on a qualitative basis, using research-application as a technique and as collection instruments, photos, videos, audios and logbook. As theoretical contributions, some official documents were used, some that occupy the historical level, such as the Curricular Reference for Early Childhood Education (RCNEI), and those in force, such as the National Guidelines for Early Childhood Education (DCNEI), the Law of Education Guidelines and Bases (LDB) and the National Common Curricular Base (BNCC), among others. As a basis for thinking about Science Teaching, we have Chassot (2002) Carvalho (2002, 2009, 2012, 2015, 2017), Sasseron (2008), Pizarro (2014), among others who collaborated to understand how science knowledge is built with the Small Child/student, taking water as a theme and doing justice to methodological elements that support collaborative investigative experiences for the development of curiosity, discoveries and argumentation and consequently Scientific Literacy or some indicators of its construction in Early Childhood Education, such as the of argumentative dealings and reading and writing in Science, since they can be developed in ways that are different from conventional ones, based on verbal interactions, image readings and explanatory drawings.

  • Throughout our history, different social groups have produced/produce knowledge and experiences that are the result of their daily experiences, as people loaded with meanings that bring techniques, organization processes and even counting, measurements and geometric shapes that make sense to the space in which they live. Thus, with the concern to promote possibilities of teaching and learning mathematics, in the need for valuing and rediscovering knowledge, this research was developed in order to understand the mathematics that is subtended by the cultural group of the remaining quilombola community of Múquem, in União dos Palmares-AL and to associate knowledge with formal mathematics that is taught at school. From an interdisciplinary perspective, the contributions of Comics (HQs) are used in the mathematics learning process, as a communicative, creative, motivating and interesting resource. Thus, mediated by a moment of social distancing in the pandemic situation, the teaching and learning process took place in the virtual classroom environment through remote learning. The research was qualitative, based on a case study methodology, both in the quilombola community and in the virtual classroom. The subjects participating in the research were two artisans from the quilombola community of Múquem and students from the 7th year of Elementary School II from a state public school. To obtain data in the community, interviews, filming and photographic records of the process of handling the artisans' clay pieces were used. In the online classroom, two diagnostic activities (initial and final), a questionnaire, four HQs created and prepared by the researcher were used, along with in-depth activities on the subject areas of mathematics, through the pixton software, in addition to an evaluation by rubric. , with the objective of evaluating the study process carried out by the students during the research. The thematic areas used to structure the comics were: numbers, algebra, geometry, quantities and measures. For data analysis we used four categories of analyzes based on cultural mathematical knowledge, student's prior knowledge, implementation of comics, learning and performance. Therefore, the results pointed to the benefit of using comic books in the classroom as a resource that presents the potential, involvement, curiosity and creativity of mathematical elaboration and use in the classroom, valuing the experiences of a people potentially loaded with knowledge that they need to be understood in their diversity. In addition to encouraging reading, motivation and understanding of mathematics content as a critical subject, the comics allowed bringing interest and meaning to the domains of practical knowledge of the life of the quilombola community with cultural recognition.

  • Abstract: The teaching of Science is a significant action for understanding the phenomena experienced in the daily lives of students, enabling the perception that Science is in society and that it is also part of it. It is for this purpose that the deepening of the teaching of Science fosters the process of curiosities, making it possible to develop a more systematic contact with reality. In this context, it is worth emphasizing the contributions of chemical knowledge in the early years, which, based on contents such as natural phenomena, photosynthesis, combustion of matter, decomposition of organic matter, among others, significantly favors the initial scientific training of students. With the establishment of the Common National Curriculum Base (BNCC) these contents are brought within the specific competences of the Natural Sciences area for Elementary School, but precisely within the thematic unit Matter and Energy. The objective of this research is to propose an investigative sequence that contributes to the scientific literacy process of 4th grade students, addressing notions of chemical kinetics. For this purpose, we will have teaching through investigation as a didactic approach, which constitutes a significant element to promote the development of the student's intellectual autonomy through interaction with peers, teachers and scientific knowledge. From this perspective, an investigative sequence with the theme “An eye on transformations” was constructed, which was validated by students from the 7th period of the Pedagogy course at UFAL. The method adopted was the qualitative-exploratory and data collection was carried out through the development of an investigative sequence in remote classes with the use of digital tools (meet, classroom and padlet) and the completion of a semi-structured questionnaire. Data were evaluated using Content Analysis, according to Bardin (2016).

  • This research addresses the role of scientific biographies as an instrument to discuss Nature of Science, enabling acknowledgement and recognition of scientists and, most importantly, giving it a more humanistic perspective. Particularly in this research, diversity issues – gender and race – are also aimed at establishing the development of a female biography. A historiography was developed based on primary and secondary sources about the life and work of Alice Ball. The objective was to understand her life trajectory and identify her role in the science of Chemistry in the beginning of the 20th century, with the goal of developing scientific educational materials to discuss aspects of the nature of Science, including gender and race matters. From this source, which is the educational component of this dissertation, a survey with professors was carried out in order to understand contributions in reading the biography taking into consideration internal and external aspects to the construction of science, having as reference Alice Ball’s case. The results showed that reading enhances reflections on the condition of women and blacks in the production of knowledge. The identification of factors that interfere in the production of knowledge, although highlighted in the text, need further problematization. In this way, it is inferred about the role of the pedagogical mediation of reading, even though scientific dissemination texts, such as the biography produced, seek a wide audience.

  • The use of Digital Technologies of Information and Communication has helped in several educational aspects, from the sharing of content to the monitoring of teaching, assessment and progress of students, in the face of the challenges of teaching and learning the discipline of Mathematics for elementary school students. One of these technologies is Matific, a platform that provides resources and tools in a playful way in the search for the development of mathematical skills in a gamified way, through digital games. To understand and amplify the use of gamification in the mathematical teaching of children in the 5th year of elementary school, this research has as main objective to understand the changes existing in the school space, investigating the difficulties and advantages offered by technology and gamification in the Teaching-Learning-Assessment system, more specifically through Problem Solving. To achieve the proposed purpose, a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) was carried out which addresses the use of Matific in mathematical teaching, followed by the development of a tutorial about the platform and the application of a workshop, aimed at 5th grade Elementary Education teachers of Mathematics, in order to expand the training of these agents in the development of didactic sequences using the Teaching-Learning-Assessment Methodology of Mathematics by Problem Solving. In SLR, studies were searched in the databases between the years 2015 and 2020 that refer to the use of technology in the teaching of Mathematics through the Matific platform, in Portuguese and English. For the development of the tutorial and the application of the workshop, the theoretical framework was Vygotsky's learning theory, together with Onuchic and Allevato's Problem Solving. In the workshop, information was collected through Participant Observation, in a field diary, and with the use of two questionnaires, one prior to the workshop, for diagnosis, and the second after it, for results.

  • SUMMARY
    This research aims to investigate the contributions of the elaboration and resolution of mathematical problems in the development of mathematical logical reasoning through the inverted classroom with elementary school students. The elaboration and resolution of problems was applied as a methodology based on the studies of Onuchic; Allevato (2011), among others; to consolidate aspects of bacich hybrid education; Grandson; Trevisani (2015) used as models the inverted classroom based on the theoretical aspects proposed by Bergman; Sams (2018). This research has a qualitative character based on the Creswell studies (2010), with an intervention research approach described by Teixeira; Neto (2017) that was developed in a private school in Maceió/AL, with twenty students of the 6th year of elementary school Final Years. For data collection, individual and non-participant observation was used, combined with other research techniques, such as the application of questionnaires with evaluative character, group discussion, recording of audio and video of the activities so that the participants' speeches were transpose during the steps performed in the room and the expressions observed during the process. For data analysis, Bardin (1977) was used with the determination of analysis categories. The main results showed that The DS provided the development of the logical mathematical reasoning of the participants, encouraging them to actively participate in the construction of knowledge by developing autonomy, creativity and organization of mathematical thinking. It is expected to contribute to the strengthening of significant practice in the classroom by mathematics teachers, with activities that encourage students to use creativity and mathematical logical reasoning.

  • The construction of the sense of number depends on the significant development of the mental processes studied by Piaget and Constance Kamii and that underlie arithmetical thinking.

    In this way, the present research aims to investigate the process of construction and conservation of the sense of number in the 1st year of Elementary School by a group of students who attended Early Childhood Education through remote teaching in the pandemic period of 2020 and how this sense of number can be re-signified by mathematical tasks aimed at mental processes that help in the development of numeracy.

    Therefore, the qualitative approach research characterized by a case study of participatory nature with intervention, involved the application of a methodological proposal composed of a didactic sequence and post-test for a group of students of the 1st year of Elementary School of a school in the city of Maceió (Alagoas). The didactic sequence and the post-test are made up of activities aimed at the mental processes of counting, quantification, ordering, grouping, correspondence, comparison, classification, comparison, sequencing, serialization, conservation and inclusion; for physical, social and logical-mathematical knowledge and for empirical and reflective abstractions. The results of the application of the didactic sequence revealed that the students had difficulties in relation to the mental processes of counting, quantification, correspondence, ordering, grouping, numerical sequence and conservation, thus generating impacts for the development of reflective abstraction and logical knowledge. mathematical, as well as for the structures of the additive conceptual field related to the actions of joining, adding, separating, removing present in the operations of addition and subtraction. These results stem from the 2020 pandemic period in which the Early Childhood Education stage was carried out remotely due to the suspension of face-to-face classes, with a learning gap. The students' performance improved in the activities of the didactic sequence that involved group work and concrete material, contributing to the development of physical and social knowledge and empirical abstraction. After analyzing the results of the application of the didactic sequence and considering the teaching work carried out, the post-test was carried out, noting that there was a significant improvement in the development of the mental processes of counting, quantification, correspondence, ordering, grouping, with there was still difficulty with numerical sequence and conservation of quantities, as well as in relation to the actions of the additive field (add, add, separate, remove), in which students were able to develop strategies to carry them out. We identified that there are signs of development of reflective abstraction and logical-mathematical knowledge and improvement in empirical abstraction. The research made it possible to verify that for the researched group, considering the exceptionality of the 2020 pandemic period, the construction of the sense of number and numeracy are being developed in the 1st year of Elementary School with the return of face-to-face classes, not having occurred the transition phase and development of initial mathematical ideas and their respective skills in the Early Childhood stage.

  • This study focused on the development of a technical-technological product in the format of a didactic sequence. This one had as its driving question the following question: what proposals for teaching science and teaching mathematics can be developed from the scientific-technological inventions of black women? From a general point of view, with this research we aimed to investigate scientific-technological inventions developed by black women, focusing on their pedagogical potential for teaching science and for teaching mathematics in the early years of elementary school. Specifically, we outline the following objectives: a) explore the possibilities and limits of the development and application of anti-racist science teaching proposals; b) mapping scientific-technological inventions produced by black women; c) develop proposals for teaching science and teaching mathematics for classes in the early years of elementary school, centered on scientific-technological inventions produced by black women. To update these objectives, we carried out a theoretical-bibliographic study about how the State, within the capitalist society, organizes itself to promote the epistemicide of decolonial knowledge in the school curriculum; we explore evidence of the scientific-technological legacy of colonized peoples who were victims of epistemic pillage and epistemicide; and, with a view to pointing out anti-racist, anti-sexist and anti-epistemic didactic-pedagogical alternatives, we developed a didactic sequence that, due to the objective conditions imposed by the COVID-19 Pandemic, it was not possible to apply in loco, but that favors us to think of another society in dialogue with black feminism, especially from the prism of the intersectionality of gender, race and class. Thus, we present the didactic sequence produced as a technical-technological product whose didactic-epistemological power aims at the construction of an anti-racist, anti-sexist and anti-epistemicide pedagogical thought. These are ideas that, once adjusted to the reality of each school and/or university context, can contribute to the formation of a more egalitarian society.

As a documentary research, with a qualitative approach using the content analysis of Bardim (2016), in which clippings from textbooks were analyzed, along with tables that highlighted the educational approaches to ascertain the object of study. By making a link between educational and social contexts, the research is based on the assumptions of the pedagogy of freedom, according to Paulo Freire's ideologies. With the research, it was possible to emphasize the importance of the textbook and class planning to work on the generative theme, pandemic. Emphasizing that, the 6th grade book presented the theme indirectly, through the didactic orientations directed to the teacher. The 7th year was the one that provided the most knowledge regarding research, as it studied the classification of living beings. The 8th year book also brought its contribution to the theme, with the study of the immune system. The 9th grader, on the other hand, did not present a link to the central question of the research. In general, the collection makes them with the pandemic theme, but it should explore a little more with regard to the content and its didactic approach, since the school has a key role in the propagation of scientific knowledge in particular, with regard to public health .It is hoped that the research will open the way for future works that bring the importance of Science to the health of society, emphasizing the importance of the textbook as well, because even with the technological era, this pedagogical resource still assumes a fundamental role for teachers and students. And that it will also bring reflections for the Science teacher, regarding the resources and pedagogical aspects used in the classroom.

    This work was developed from an exploratory qualitative research that sought to analyze, the reading and representations produced by undergraduate chemistry students, the influences of a string text with a scientific theme for the understanding of the concept of solvation. The research was carried out with 19 undergraduate students in Chemistry from UFAL Campus Arapiraca in some classes of the discipline “Reading, Textual Production and Chemistry Teaching”. The booklet entitled “A Look at Unseen Chemistry” was produced by the author of this research based on the theme of solvation and founded the production of the data analyzed and presented throughout this work. The proposal was for students to read the text individually and then answer two questions about it, as well as, after reading, create an image representation (or sequence of images) related to the text read. After analyzing the empirical data, it was possible to identify representations that gave rise to emerging categories and subcategories. To analyze the results obtained, approaches were used based on their own representations foundations, as well as some inferences could be made based on the levels of chemistry that were evidenced in the productions of the undergraduates so that the influences of a string text with a scientific theme could be identified. for understanding the concept of solvation. As a result, it was identified that cordel texts have the potential to promote students’ thinking in diferente ways. From reading, for example, it was noticed reactions such as curiosity, imagination and affective relationships with the text. On the other hand, the representations produced evoked different forms of chemical thinking, sometimes based on the concrete dimension, but also linked to the theoretical-representational dimension, as well as extrapolating to aesthetic representations of knowledge. These results suggest the potential of cordel as a didactic support both for teaching chemistry and for cultural perspectives.

  • ABSTRACT

    About 98.8% of Brazilian municipalities have household waste collection and only 38.1% have selective collection. In addition, according to the Solid Waste Management Diagnosis, municipal governments spend an average of R$130.47 on handling this material. Material, which is also composed of what is produced by public schools. Due to this scenario, the present master's research project had as main objective the application of an interdisciplinary didactic sequence (DS) with the generating theme "Organic Waste Management" in a public school of integral education to observe the contributions in teaching- Science learning, and to additionally contribute to a waste reduction process. The research had as target audience the students of a class of the 1st and one of the 2nd year of high school, being developed in an action research approach and of a qualitative nature. Data collection carried out during the application of the SD was obtained through questionnaires, semi-structured interviews, focus groups, logbooks and participant observation. It is possible to conclude that the didactic sequence is efficient because it approaches proposed knowledge objects with the expected ones, as well as the application of knowledge learned with everyday life.

  • The present work aims to analyze how mobile and ubiquitous technologies can contribute to the teaching of School Financial Education (SFE), from the perspective of mobile learning (m-learning), in order to enhance the development of pedagogical practices in Mathematics classes. . In this sense, we seek an answer to the following question: how can mobile and ubiquitous technologies contribute to the teaching of SFE, from the perspective of m-learning, to enhance the development of pedagogical practices in Mathematics classes? in addition, the specific objectives of the survey reflect the following guidelines: the use of mobile and ubiquitous technologies in SFE teaching to discuss the possibilities of integrating mobile and ubiquitous technologies. Their relevance to the teaching of the subject to understand how students (re)mean their systematized knowledge about SFE and its implications among the activities developed propose an application that aims to stimulate knowledge in the area to mobilize knowledge arounds the theme. The research was developed based on a qualitative pedagogical intervention with the application of semi-structured activities based on the related demand by the students. In short, the activities on the e-futuro platform were built from the students' speeches. It occurred four times with the following activities: Quiz - The History of Money, Trail of the Value of Things, Word Search (making the best use of money) and Enjoying Knowledge. During data collection, the following instruments were used: semi-structured interview, recording of interactions through photographs and use of the logbook. The 18 participants of this case study are part of the school group and of the 5th year of Elementary School I, of the morning shift, of a municipal school in Rio Largo-AL. The research concluded that the students were able to reflect on the EFE situations and envision its applicability in everyday life. In additionally, they were able to understand the unique aspects of consumerism and arouse interest in the act of saving and creating plans. From the applied methodology, the handling of the APP allowed new learning opportunities on the subject through the manipulation and participation of the subjects in the different stages of the games created in the virtual environment, in addition to the pedagogical intervention by carrying out the challenges and listening to the speeches from the participation’s students.

  • This research starts from the idea of a Science Teaching that provides students of Youth and Adult Education (YAE) with the understanding of scientific knowledge about Infectious and Contagious Diseases in the 'current context. With a purpose of analysis as the textbooks of Elementary School - Final Years of YAE, provided by public schools in the city of Nova, Alagoas, thematically address Infectious Diseases and their contribution to student learning. The works were made from the 6th to the 9th year of the YAE Moderna Collection, selected by the Textbook Program for Youth and Adult Education (PNLD YAE 2014/2016). It is, therefore, a qualitative approach, being a documentary one, based on the research models of Bardin (2016), which were elaborated with textbooks, prepared with specific criteria and defined to support the object of study analysis. To support the investigation, some literatures were consulted that supported this investigation Leontiev (1998), Libâneo (2004; 2006), Davydov (1978; 1988; 2002), Vygotsky (1991;1998;2001), Sasseron (2019) ; Freitas (2007); Cavalcante (2016), Tortora (2010), among others. It was used as a theoretical contribution as educational contributions by Freire (1987, 2002, 2013) to understand the context of young people and adults in EJA. From the thought books, we found that the books analyzed in the 6th and 7th year approach the theme of Infected and Retracted diseases, in a biological and sanitary perspective, by emphasizing the problems through sanitary and microgenic measures. Already from chapter 8, the most preventive preventive health measures or the theoretical and preventive development, not specific for preventive diseases, is not a specific prevention plan for preventive and preventive diseases, that is, the basic planning on the services of public and preventive health. The 9th grade book did not address, in any of the units, content related to the thematically central to the research. We observed during the study of our teacher and the great importance of the knowledge presented in the book, above all, the modality of Youth and Des. We also developed this work, as an Educational Product, an E-Book with practical and experimental activities focusing on the theme of Infectious Diseases, with the purpose of contributing to the critical training of YAE students, especially with regard to contexts and public health.

  • Show Abstract
  • This study emerged from the following epistemological curiosity: “What are the potentialities of the awelé game, from the mancala family, for the development of anti-racist mathematics teaching practices, in the context of the early years of elementary school?” Its general objective was to investigate theoretical-methodological possibilities for the exploration of the awelé game in the context of pedagogical practices focused on anti-racist mathematics teaching aimed at children of the 2nd year of Elementary School. Specifically, it aimed to: understand the relationships between racism, epistemicide and colonialism in a capitalist society and their repercussions on pedagogical practices developed in the early years of Elementary School; explore the awelé game with a view to developing a Didactic Sequence that mobilizes mathematical knowledge and focuses on the anti-racist struggle; and to evaluate the limits and potential of the awelé game for the development of teaching proposals focused on combating the epistemicide of ancestral mathematical knowledge. From the methodological point of view, it is a qualitative research carried out in three stages: Theoretical-bibliographic study; Exploratory Research and Participatory Research. At first, a theoretical-bibliographic study was carried out on the concepts of racism and epistemicide and, in the form of a case report, pedagogical practices with an anti-racist theme developed in the same public school in Arapiraca-AL were presented. Subsequently, an Exploratory Research was carried out on the potential of the awelé game for the teaching of mathematical concepts, in an anti-racist perspective. This movement favored the development of a proposal for a Didactic Sequence aimed at the 2nd year of Elementary School. This Didactic Sequence was structured in four stages: a) 1st Stage: Origins, Logic and Rules of the Awelé Game; b) 2nd Stage: Building a board for the awelé game; c) 3rd Stage: Understanding Rules, Strategies and Playing the awelé game with pairs; d) 4th Stage: Reflections on mathematical problems based on the rules and strategies of the awelé game. Continuing, a Participating Research was developed with a class of 21 students who took the discipline "Knowledge and Methodologies of Mathematics Teaching 2", in the first academic semester of 2021, in the Pedagogy Course of the Federal University of Alagoas, Campus Arapiraca. Through the Participant Research, the Didactic Sequence proposal was applied to this class, with the necessary adaptations depending on the COVID-19 Pandemic context and the implementation of Emergency Remote Teaching. In order to capture these students' conceptions about the proposed Didactic Sequence, a semi-structured press conference was held with the 14 students who were present. The interview was recorded on Google Meet, transcribed and the material was interpreted in light of the Content Analysis approach. As a result of these analyses, the following emerging categories were produced: a) The old becomes new; b) The contemporary relationship between subsistence agriculture and the awelé game; c) Different ways, different rules, different playing strategies; d) Capitalist and anti-capitalist values in awelé games; e) The experience of playing the awelé game with the family; f) The experience with the digital awelé game; g) Mobilization of mathematical concepts with the awelé game; h) Would I, as a pedagogue, use the awelé game in my math classes? Finally, as an Educational Product, through this investigation, it was possible to develop and improve a Didactic Sequence that focuses on the exploration of the awelé game with a view to teaching mathematical concepts, in an anti-racist perspective.

  • Knowing how to deal with issues related to consumption and personal financial planning has gained prominence in the concerns of Brazilians. The increase in purchase offers of the most varied products, with attractive prices and conditions, has led several families to increase their wage commitment. Thus, it is necessary to learn to manage financial resources critically and consciously so that consumption is done in a positive way for oneself and for the world. In this perspective, Financial Education (EF) has been presented as a rich topic for discussions related to consumption, financial planning being related to the most diverse areas. In our research, we limited ourselves to understanding PE from the perspective of Mathematics Education and Mathematics Teaching in the school context. We find the reader (a) that studies on this topic have gained prominence on the national scene, after the recommendations of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) highlight the urgency of discussing a wide range of topics such as retirement, consumption of economic products and personal financial planning. Despite not being an OECD member country, Brazil participates in the meetings and seeks to comply with the recommendations proposed by it. Thus, in 2010, Brazil created the National Strategy for Financial Education (ENEF), which guides actions aimed at the most varied segments of society. In line with the concepts of the OECD, ENEF presents itself as a normative, which aims to promote PE in order to instruct Brazilians to take autonomous and critical decisions, in addition to promoting the strengthening of citizenship. In our research, we will focus on School Financial Education, Silva and Powell (2013), and how it has been presented in Mathematics textbooks approved in PNLD 2020 for the final years of elementary school. In this perspective, our research is qualitative of the documentary type and is based on the Theory of Critical Mathematics Education by Ole Skovsmose (2000). We understand that PE is a complex topic and that it is not limited to simple exercises and concepts. As data from our research, we analyzed the eleven collections of Mathematics approved in the PNLD 2020 of the 6th, 7th, 8th and 9th years in the light of Skovsmsose's (2014) learning environments. As a result of the study, we can observe that all collections have a reference to Financial Education. However, we observe that the activities and tasks presented in the collections still represent a little expressive quantity.

  • Show Abstract
  • The school plays a fundamental role in the development of critical thinking, so that students acquire specific knowledge of science and also manage to relate this content to aspects of an economic, social, political and environmental nature. According to official documents, the main function of teaching chemistry is to prepare students so that they can make decisions in problematic situations, contributing to their development as human beings and citizens. Therefore, the study of thermochemistry concepts favors the development of skills so that students understand the use and production in different phenomena and can interpret them, as well as evaluate and judge the risks and benefits of using different forms of energy, linking knowledge with other areas of knowledge, thus promoting interdisciplinarity. The contextualization in the teaching of chemistry can enable a better understanding between specific knowledge, problems related to the daily lives of students and society. The CTSA approach, in educational practices, provides the development of skills in students that make it possible to understand the role of man in nature, thus inserting the student in the social context, contributing to their formation as a critical and responsible citizen. The use of Digital Information and Communication Technologies (TDIC) brings the possibility of making educational techniques more flexible, making school environments increasingly rich, which, from a solid base, allows the insertion of new pedagogical practices. The use and influence of technologies are a daily reality in many situations, most students are already used to the diversity of devices, such as computers, tablets, smartphones, as well as a variety of applications connected to the internet network. They are growing with the influence of these technological equipments. The applied didactic sequence will allow the study and evaluation from a procedural perspective, including the planning, application and evaluation phases. The SD was applied to 20 students from the 2nd year of high school at Colégio Expoente e Cursos, located in the Feitosa neighborhood, in Maceió - AL. The objective of this work was to evaluate the students' significant learning, through a teaching sequence (DS), which used audiovisual resources as a study tool for the teaching-learning of chemistry related to the thermochemistry content. In this way, it brought the CTSA focus in the approach of the activities practiced during the SD, with the purpose of bringing the classroom practice (traditional education) closer to the reality of students in the second year of high school at a private school. For the evaluation of learning, the idea of Conceptual Maps (CM) was used as an evaluation mechanism. The result of this work showed a positive evaluation regarding the proposal of the didactic sequence, using audiovisual resources: it was observed, through the validation instrument, that most students, in their conceptual maps, presented more conceptual propositions at the end of the research. Therefore, it can be considered that DS contributed significantly to the teaching-learning process, as it aroused students' motivation and interest in thermochemistry content. The educational product generated from the collection of the application of the tests was the elaboration of a didactic sequence, containing the tests and the orientations directed to the teachers on how to work with the proposal.

Through it, we intend to reflect on the need to articulate this training process with the CTSA (Science, Technology, Society and Environment) perspective, understood in this study as the social construction of Science and Technology, that is: the social construction of scientific and technological knowledge that are not only popularly accessible, but that impact the lives of communities in their daily lives. As it is a qualitative research with an emphasis on Research-Formation, we sought to know the place of the CTSA perspective in the Political Course Project (PPC) of the undergraduate course in Pedagogy at UFAL, as well as in the structure of the continuing education program offered. by SEMED-Maceió, contrasting the data collected with the speeches of the pedagogues, university professors and training technicians interviewed. It is not yet possible to draw conclusions due to the fact that the research is in the development phase.

  • Science education has undergone several changes throughout history. With society in
    constant change, teaching and school require monitoring in their methodologies and
    strategies. Teachers are invited to constantly update themselves in order to meet the
    demands of this changing society. With the advancement of the new SARS-CoV-2
    coronavirus, society was put on alert and measures of social distancing were adopted,
    demanding once again that schools in general, develop means to adapt to the new
    existing reality, so that they do not if there is a decrease in the bond between the school,
    students and families. In this context, measures were taken and remote teaching is being
    placed as an alternative to make pedagogical practice viable. The present work arises

    from the questioning about how the remote work of science teachers from the public

    school network of an elementary school – Final Years is being, in this period of social
    distance, arising from the pandemic of the new Sars-Cov-2 coronavirus. It is expected to
    understand, which perspectives the teaching class has about this teaching format
    adopted urgently, the challenges and consequences for the process of teaching and
    learning in the discipline of science. For this explanation we turn to Saviani (2011) to
    talk about the purpose of Teaching according to Historical-Critical Pedagogy and to
    other authors such as Krasilchik (2000) and Fernandes et.al (2020) to discuss science
    teaching. Our research locus was science teachers from an Elementary School - Final
    Years and documents that guide the teaching model adopted by the municipality during
    the period of stoppage of classroom classes caused by social isolation during the Covid-
    19 pandemic. The analysis consists of a qualitative research, based on Creswell (2007),
    with an exploratory approach reinforced by Piovesan and Temporini (1995). The results
    obtained showed a lack of educational preparation as a whole, considering access,
    training and acquisition of technological and digital means for schools, teachers and
    students, which compromised learning for a quality science education, aiming at the real
    objective of education.

  • Biology teaching has presented many advances in terms of didactic strategies for teaching its contents, which significantly contributes to student learning. The content of cell division, for example, is of great relevance to the teaching of Biology, being fundamental for the understanding of several themes and areas of this discipline. The motivation for choosing this theme is due to the fact that this content brings difficulties for its transposition and even learning, for being extensive (due to the phases of mitosis and meiosis) and for the methodologies generally used in the classroom, summarized in traditional and little playful. The objective of this work is to analyze the learning of students of the 1st year of high school about the content of cell division, in order to instigate curiosity and expand the knowledge of the participants of the activities. The target audience will be students from a class of the 1st year of Integral High School at the Escola de Referência em Ensino Médio (EREM) in Jatobá, located in the city of Petrolândia - PE. Regarding the structure of the text for qualification, this work was arranged in the form of three chapters, namely, the theoretical foundation, the methodological procedures and the Technological Technical Product, in addition to an article, which was a Systematic Review of Literature. The theoretical foundation sought to bring discussions between authors on the research topic, among the topics mentioned in the foundation there are: The Teaching of Cell Division, Theory of Meaningful Learning (TAS) and the Teaching of Science and Prior Knowledge and Concept Maps. In the first article, a Systematic Literature Review (RSL) was elaborated, in order to analyze didactic strategies for teaching cell division content, proposed for High School. The investigation took place through a bibliographic survey, considering articles (periodicals), TCC and monographs published in Scientific Journals, available on the search platforms of Scielo (Scientific Electronic Library Online), Scopus - Periodicals Capes and Google academic, totaling 20 selected articles, between the years 2010 to 2021. The second chapter is the methodological procedures, whose primary objective is to list the techniques developed in the research for its best execution. Finally, the third chapter, which was the game book, with the aim of providing opportunities for students to learn in a playful way for the processes of mitosis and meiosis. The project complies with the norms established by Plataforma Brasil and was approved by the ethics committee with the opinion embodied in CEP number: 5,069,415 and CAAE: 48691621.0.0000.5013.

  • This work aims to analyze the contributions of an Investigative Teaching Sequence about fungi subject, to improve the construction of the students' Scientific Literacy of the 4th year of Elementary School, using the production of Comics. The research composed the production of Comics in Comics (HQs) fullfilled by students in a public school in Roteiro -AL city, the work was accomplished in February 2020, just before the closure of tua schools because coronavirus pandemic with great social, educational and economic repercussions for the country. To direct the research, we chose the following question: How can an Investigative Teaching Sequence on fungi contribute to the promotion of Scientific Literacy of 4th grade students? The methodology used is qualitative with the contributions of Patton (1980) and Glazier (1992). The data collection instrument consisted on the Investigative Teaching Sequence (SEI) related to the theme: Investigating the theme of fungi in the 4th grade of elementary school. As a corpus of analysis, we used Comic Books as one of the activities produced in the development of Scientific Research. The data were analyzed based on two categories: The dialectical relationship between the children's everyday concepts and the scientific concepts taught and Vygostky's Proximal Development Zones (ZDP) that were established in the classroom. We also built an SEI as an Educational Product entitled: Studying Fungi in the 4th Grade of Elementary School. The results of Scientific Investigations show us to realize that the students were able to expand their knowledge about fungi based on the scientific practices required in Science Education. Thus, we believe that the use of didactic strategies based on investigative practices are viable and promising resource for the promotion of Scientific Literacy in Sciences.

  • This study is part of the line of research Knowledge and Teaching Practices highlighting the importance of Statistics in student learning, in addition, it considers the textbook as the main instrument used by teachers when planning their classes and as material for study and research by students , so the research has as main objective to analyze two collections of High School Mathematics textbooks, from the National Textbook Program 2018, regarding the Statistics approach and if this approach promotes Statistical Literacy. Theoretically, it will be supported by Statistical Literacy, proposed by Iddo Gal (2002), at the Watson and Callingham (2003) Statistical Literacy levels, in Chevallard's Praxeological Organization (1999) and in works that also analyzed the mathematics textbook. In the analysis, it was also verified whether the collections already had any correspondence with guidelines from the Common National Curricular Base (BNCC, 2018). Qualitative documentary study methodology was used. The sample was intentionally composed of two high school collections recommended by PNLD 2018 - 2020. To perform the analysis, the evaluation instrument with descriptors based on the work of Santos (2017) was used. At the end of the analysis it was found that the Connections to Mathematics collection allows the student to reach the consistent non-critical level, while the Context & Applications collection allows the inconsistent level, depending on the categorization of Watson and Callingham's (2003) Statistical Literacy. Therefore, we found gaps that would be filled if the textbooks met what is recommended by researchers in the field of Statistical Education. In view of the observed aspects, we have developed an educational product that consists of teaching support material for the teacher to plan his classes.

  • This work aims to investigate the possible contributions of the exploration of a Webquest from the teaching of spatial geometry. The work was developed in three moments: in the bibliographic analysis, in the construction of a Webquest as an educational product and in the discussions about the activities developed in the Webquest. The proposed research was of an exploratory qualitative nature, as it allows dialogues based on flexibility and improvement of ideas that guide the research. The research problem focused on: what are the didactic potentialities of the Webquest methodology for the teaching of spatial geometry from a critical teaching context ?. The specific objectives of the research are: I) To understand the possible contributions of the exploration of a Webquest; II) Analyze the use of a Webquest to approach the teaching of spatial geometry; III) Evaluate the contributions of a Webquest to a critical teaching of spatial geometry. Thus, we sought to present a proposal for Webquest methodology to be developed by educators, aiming at teaching processes for students and students. In addition to building dialogues that involve the concepts of critical teaching, specifically that of spatial geometry through digital culture, it may allow an understanding of the world from the events that encompass social, cultural, historical and political contexts of the reality of students and students. As a result, the exploration and construction of a Webquest is reported as a didactic educational product to be used by society.

  • This study aimed to analyze the extent to which the discussion on practices that address knowledge in the field of Natural Sciences in Early Childhood Education becomes significant pedagogical actions in the educational field. As well as discussing actions intentionally organized by the teacher in his teaching actions so that the child interacts with the environment, understands it and participates in its transformations, enabling the construction of knowledge from the initial stages of formal education without losing focus, thinking about a developmental learning process through investigative practices. The investigative activity aims to strengthen the child's bond and his reality with scientific knowledge. When we refer to Science Teaching in Early Childhood Education, we emphasize the possibility for children to develop their potential for understanding what is around them, recognizing themselves as a subject of rights, building their own autonomy through intentional and organized pedagogical actions, in a distant perspective of plastered education, which understands the child as a tabula rasa. As a theoretical framework, we used the authors: Saviani (2006), Marsiglia (2011), Arce; Silva and Varotto (2011), among others. This study consists of a reflection on the importance of Science Teaching for the integral development of the child, having as relevance, to show that all children are holders of potentialities, they are thinking subjects who build hypotheses from a very early age. To achieve the proposed objectives, we applied questionnaires with teachers of Early Childhood Education in the city of Maceió, Alagoas. The responses of 12 teachers were analyzed. It was possible to make a content analysis of the teachers' answers and deepen the subject thinking about new possibilities and strategies for investigative activities for Science Teaching in Early Childhood Education from the perspective of historical-critical pedagogy.

  • This work is the result of the research carried out from a teacher / researcher concern, in face of the reality of Science Teaching in the Early Years of Elementary Education. Personal experience perceives it taught in a traditional and meaningless way due to lack of mastery on the part of teachers. Therefore, the objective was to investigate how Conceptual Maps can contribute to the improvement of Science Teaching and Learning in the Early Years. For this purpose, we base our research on Vygotsky's studies, on Joseph Novak's Concept Maps, the Theory of Meaningful Verbal Learning (TAVS), advocated by David Ausubel and Science Teaching from the perspective of Critical Historical Pedagogy. The work is classified as action research with participant observation, having as participating subjects 15 teachers from the 1st to the 5th year of a Public School in the Municipal Teaching Network of Teotônio Vilela - AL. Through a teacher training action, a pedagogical alternative was provided that contributes to the performance based on Meaningful Learning in the area of Natural Sciences. Thus, the question that guided the search was: Can Conceptual Maps contribute as a didactic-pedagogical tool in teacher education? For the collection and generation of data we use logbook records, focus group organization, application and analysis of questionnaires and offer of a workshop. We understand that the concept maps significantly influenced the learning of the Science contents presented by the teachers, in each of the five moments intentionally organized for collections and data generation in the classes of the participating classes. Being a tool that offers perspectives for significant advances in classroom practices, this tool serves as a subsidy for the advancement of investigations of teaching and learning processes. As an Educational Product, we developed a Pedagogical Strategies Notebook for Concept Maps in the Early Years of Elementary School.

  • Biochemistry is an area of study that involves knowledge of Biology and Chemistry, focusing on the “Chemistry of Living Beings”. This area of knowledge addresses topics that are not easy to represent, which creates difficulties for students to understand, and is also neglected by teachers. Another difficulty detected in schools today is the reduced use of collaborative activities during classes, which sometimes leaves students isolated, limiting their learning. In addition to the previously mentioned difficulties, it is observed that the advances in Digital Technologies that are already inserted in today's society, and, therefore, schools are constantly challenged to introduce these technologies in classes in order to improve the teaching and learning process, the quality of the classes, as well as aligning them with the students' reality regarding the use of Digital Technologies. Considering the difficulties of learning Biochemistry and the proper and efficient insertion of Digital Technologies in schools, another major challenge arises: the assessment of learning in the online context. Thus, this research had as a guiding question the verification of evidence of significant learning in the collaborative activities of high school students using concept maps and online discussion forums. Conceptual maps are graphic schemes that assist in the representation of knowledge present in the individual's cognitive structure, facilitating their externalization. Discussion forums, on the other hand, allow collaborative activities between subjects, promoting dialogue in order to generate additional knowledge. This work consisted of: Planning activities, online classes (about the “Proteins” concept, construction of concept maps and use of discussion forums in Virtual Environment, instructions for using applications for construction of concept maps), construction of maps conceptual (individual and collaborative) hands-on and with the software Cmaptools, Lucidchart and Power Point and use of discussion forums in Virtual Learning Environment / Moodle and use of evaluation rubrics. Evaluation rubrics adapted from Biagiotti (2005), Cruz and Nunes (2009) and Martins and Alves (2016) were used to evaluate the discussion forums and Evaluation rubrics adapted from Biagiotti (2005) and Novak and Cañas (2010) to evaluate concept maps. This research aimed to build a proposal for procedural assessment of the learning of the “Proteins” concept, for High School, based on the combined use of concept maps and online discussion forums on the Moodle platform. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, this research was developed entirely online, with 8 students from the 3rd year of high school, from a private school. The results point to the efficiency of collaborative activities in the learning process and the efficiency of the proposed procedural assessment model. At the end of the research, a Didactic Guide was prepared, in e-book format, as an Educational Product.

  • The concept that learning takes place only through a fixed curriculum has led Mathematics Teaching, for years, to apply directive approaches that do not value the students' prior knowledge, promoting little or no interaction in the classroom. On the other hand, Active Methodologies are based on the premise that the learner builds his own knowledge. However, when trying to bring the metaphor of games to the classroom, the educator can only reproduce directive methodologies based on memorization. With this, it becomes a great challenge for the contemporary Educator to implement the metaphors of games (gamification) in an interactive perspective. Thus, this work aims to provide contributions to the understanding of gamification under this perspective in the context of learning the additive field in the early years. Thus, we propose a redesign of the traditional concepts of gamification in the socio-interactionist view, verifying how the contributions of a Gamified Didactic Sequence (SDG) occur under this perspective, seeking to identify whether gamification, in the proposed perspective, contributes to learning in the additive field. The research was carried out through a qualitative approach with a research-intervention approach, using reasoned participant observation, the field diary and audiovisual materials (photos, videos and written activities) in data collection, as well as the analysis of content with respect to the collected data. The results of this research show that students advanced in understanding problem solving involving the meanings related to the additive field, in particular, in understanding the concepts of joining, adding, removing, separating, comparing and completing quantities through a SDG conceived from of this proposal. As a product of this research, we developed a SDG based on the story of the three little pigs, for use by teachers in Elementary School I.

  • Our work aims to create, apply and evaluate a didactic sequence aimed at learning the graphical representation and interpretation of statistical data through Powerpoint for third grade high school students. We present the contributions to a didactic sequence as an instrument of pedagogical planning that may imply in the problematization and development of the mathematical knowledge having as educational product a manual
    for the creation of statistical graphics based on PowerPoint. The research was using a qualitative with students of the third year highschool from a state school called Professor Theonilo Gama, situated in Maceió. We Will start talking a little about the historical context of statistics then we Will talk about the Statistics education focusing
    on literacy,reasoning and statistical thinking based on Cazorla, Gal, Garfield, Raumsey,among others. After that we Will talk about statistics at school and the use of digital educational resources in the development of active methodologies.In the end, we Will propose a manual as a suggestion, to make graphics using PowerPoint software
    and we Will show that statistics is much more than a simple reading of graphics or tables – it starts with all the process of teaching statistics and literacy until interference.

  • Show Abstract
  • Many students have difficulties in solving math problems because they do not understand the steps that facilitate their resolution. Hence the possibility of using the Pólya method, which helps students in this process. The aim of this work was to analyze how students use Pólya's theory to solve technology-mediated math problems in an intervention in the context of emergency remote classes during the Coronavirus pandemic. The research is of a qualitative nature of the action research type. The methodological path covered 4 stages: (i) construction of the action research problem, (ii) elaboration of an action plan; (iii) implementation of the action plan; (iv) evaluation of the intervention. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and participant observation and recorded in audiovisual and field diary. The analysis was based on the categories: interaction, mediation and autonomy. The intervention lasted six meetings that took place through videoconferences, 16 students from the fifth year of elementary school in a public school participated in the research. Preliminary data allowed us to observe that Pólya's method proved to be an efficient methodological strategy for solving problems considering that students had constant interaction during the meetings. In addition, the students presented themselves as autonomous as they were able to establish strategies for using Pólya's method in solving problems. Finally, it is worth emphasizing that this theory presented itself as an efficient pedagogical resource in the process of mathematical literacy, as it contributed to the understanding of the processes that involve the use of mathematical concepts in practical situations in the daily lives of students

  • This research is the result of the approaches between Science Teaching and Pedagogia Histórico-Crítica perceived by the author as a Master's student at the Federal University of Alagoas. Its main objective is to analyze the possibilities and limits of the contribution of Historical-Critical Pedagogy to the continued formation of teachers of Early Childhood Education, with a view to teaching science in pre-school. It is a qualitative study with an action-research approach, using structured and semi-structured interviews as data collection tools. The analysis of content is based on Lüdke and André (1986), with the intention of, when treating the data obtained, answering the central question of the present study: A continuous and distance learning, would be able to contribute to the necessary training/improvement of teachers in order to manifest the intention of deepening the knowledge about PHC, perhaps basing its pedagogical performance in Early Childhood Education on this theory? The theoretical framework is based on the formulations of historical-critical pedagogy and historical-cultural psychology, especially in the following productions: Carvalho (2014); Duarte (2015); Gama (2015; 2020); Lazaretti (2016); Marsiglia (2009; 2011); Martins e Duarte (2010); Pasqualini (2006; 2011; 2016); Saviani (2003; 2019); and Vigotski (2018). To achieve the proposed objective we will carry out the following methodological procedures: 1) diagnostic evaluation on the eventual previous knowledge of the teachers in relation to the research theme; 2) accomplishment of a minicourse of continuous formation on the research theme; 3) procedural evaluation that will happen during the extension course and with the use of a final questionnaire, and 4) analysis of the obtained results. It is expected that the continuous formation, based on the historical-critical Pedagogy, will provide practices of overcoming empiricism and made possible by voluntary and conscious pedagogical practices, making possible a process of construction of the valorization of the human being, being built from mediation with dialogicity.

  • Virtual experiments are characterized as learning objects that use specific simulators to demonstrate real events. This proposal for experimentation has been widely disseminated as teaching material, constituting an important technological artifact in teaching and learning processes in the discipline of Physics, acting as a mediator between theory and practice. Force and Movement are concepts of the discipline of Physics and a curricular component addressed in the 1st year of High School. Understanding the current context regarding the use of digital technologies and acceptance by individuals, this study had as its main proposal to investigate the didactic use of the PhET computer simulator in Force and Motion contents for meaningful learning. With regard to specific objectives, we sought to characterize the PhET computer simulator; analyze students' prior knowledge about Force and Motion contents; verify the possible contributions of the PhET computer simulator for the students' Meaningful Learning; build a script of activities for Physics teachers as a didactic sequence proposal for the use of the PhET computer simulator, working the Force and Motion contents in the perspective of meaningful learning. This work is of an exploratory action-research type and brings a qualitative approach, developed with 12 students from a class of the first year of high school, regular education, from the Professor Arthur Ramos State School, located in the city of Pilar/AL. Data collection was carried out through the application of diagnostic and learning assessment questionnaires, as well as through observation of students during simulations with the PhET computer simulator performed during synchronous meetings. The questionnaires were elaborated with open and closed questions, applied before and after the use of the PhET computer simulator and the observations had their records made from an electronic diary, with events that we believe to be more relevant during the four synchronous moments. During the first two synchronous meetings it was possible to notice the absence in the participation of some students, however, in the two remaining meetings, it was possible to notice a greater interaction between the students, as well as between them and the teacher. The interactions with the use of the PhET computer simulator contributes to learning, considering the students' responses to the learning assessment questionnaire, the virtual interaction with physical events, the instantaneous results between the variables involved in each simulation, the experience in manipulating the simulations and redoing them constantly, allowed the students to be more motivated at the time of the simulations and in the description of the answers to the propositions. As an educational product, the result of this research, an activity script was developed for use by Physics teachers, which is a proposal for a didactic sequence using the PhET computer simulator from the perspective of student learning.

  • Environmental Education has the function of forming critical citizens, changing their behaviors
    and perceptions in relation to the environment. One way, which makes the development of
    Environmental Education easier in the classroom, is the use of didactic workshops. The question
    that this study sought to investigate was: how do the workshops on Environmental Education
    collaborate for the critical training of students? The objective of the research was to stimulate the
    development of environmental awareness among students from two classes of the 6th year of
    Elementary Education on Environmental Education using interdisciplinary workshops. The
    research carried out was of the qualitative type, developed in a public school in the state of
    Alagoas. The dissertation project was submitted to and approved by the Research Ethics
    Committee. Data collection took place through the application of a diagnostic test and one of
    acquired knowledge, for the recognition of the students' previous knowledge and constructed after
    the application of the workshops. The data obtained were analyzed by frequency of responses and
    by categorization. The results showed that the students have previous knowledge about
    Environmental Education and the workshops helped in the construction and improvement of
    knowledge, but still have difficulty in talking and understanding about the subject, emphasizing
    the importance of working with Environmental Education at school. The Educational Product is
    also presented, entitled “Interdisciplinary workshops for environmental awareness”, which aims
    to provide support for Science / Biology teachers to work on the Environment theme through
    interdisciplinary workshops.

  • This dissertation aims to discuss about the potentialities developed by the Cordel Literature and how it can help in the remote teaching of the Kingdom Fungi of the Science curricular subject, carried out during the Coronavirus pandemic. Thus, the objective is to analyze the pedagogical potentialities of Cordel for the development of Scientific Literacy indicators in students, about the Science content "Kingdom Fungi". Specifically, this study sought to identify how Cordel can help in the development of reading, writing, speaking and textual interpretation, and also how can it contribute to historical and cultural appreciation of this genre, especially in the Northeast literature; in addition, this work focused on describe the possible indicators of Scientific Literacy that interventions using Cordel in science classes can develop. To discuss Cordel Literature, we mainly relied on Abreu (1993), Silva (2007) and Carvalho (2017). To discuss Scientific Literacy and Science Teaching, we based on (SASSERON; CARVALHO 2011), (CHASSOT, 2003), (BRASIL, 2017) and (PIZARRO; JÚNIOR, 2015), among others. The research was carried out in a public school of Ilha das Flores, in a village called Serrão, at Sergipe, with students from a 7th grade class of the elementary school. The methodology was the research-application (PLOMP, 2018; NONATO; MATTA, 2018) with a qualitative approach (CRESWELL, 2007; GODOY, 1995; MELO, 2020), which was constituted with the application of the Teaching Sequence (TS) "Kingdom Fungi: learning with Cordel Literature", result of this dissertation, following the steps: preliminary step, prototypical step and improvement step. For data collection, online questionnaires were applied through google forms, with the purpose of evaluating the students' previous knowledge about fungi and Cordel, as well as about the accessibility to Information and Communication Technology (ICT), the teacher's conceptions about the class, Science Teaching and remote classes (preliminary step). As part of data, also, we used the evaluation of activities solved by students after each iterative cycle (prototypical step) and considerations exposed by students after the intervention (improvement phase). The Textual Discourse Analysis – TDA – (MORAES; GALIAZZI, 2006) was used in the data analysis. The results showed us that students were able to learn not only about the structure and importance of the Cordel genre, but also helped them to improve their reading, writing, text interpretation and oral skills, in addition to the development of the indicators of Scientific Literacy: reading science, writing science, creating, acting, problematizing, arguing, investigating and articulating ideas. Such results point to the increasing insertion of several discursive textual genres in Science classes and their use in combination with other didactic resources in order to contextualize scientific knowledge and incorporate interdisciplinary practices to enhance students' learning.

  • This dissertation deals with the use of WhatsApp as a learning possibility in the teaching of mathematics with high school students of the Youth and Adult Education (EJA) modality, aiming to seek the possibility of promoting new ways to facilitate the teaching and learning process.

    In this context, we exercised the construction of the concept of matrices, in alternate environments, the first being in the classroom, in which we tried to work the contents developed according to the planning carried out together with the mathematics teachers of the educational institution and secondly, the virtual environment on WhatsApp, where we promote dialogues, interaction and student interactivity in order to obtain meaningful learning.

    The dissertation structure is composed of three guiding chapters, the first chapter being entitled Presentation and the others being articles for publications, as follows: 2) MatEJAZap tool as a strategy for teaching Mathematics; 3) The use of WhatsAppfor teaching matrices: a case study in Youth and Adult Education.

    The first chapter deals with my trajectory as a teacher of basic education in the first years of teaching and an account of my evolution as a person and my paths to become a research teacher. In this chapter I also present the organization of the dissertation (Multipaper), in which there is a study of its structure in general, which is composed of a sequence of chapters being a collection of publishable articles and these can be a collaboration with several authors and that even the act of defense, articles ready for submission or already submitted or accepted for publication. Also in this chapter I present the problematization and objectives of the research, which in this sense comes to investigate the contribution and use of the WhatsApp application in the teaching and learning process with the use of the MatEJAZap tool in Youth and Adult Education (EJA) in the study of Matrices.

    The second chapter, which will be the first article, entitled MatEJAZap Tool as a strategy in the teaching of Mathematics, which demonstrates the use of the WhatsApp application with the MatEJAZap tool as a strategy for teaching mathematics as a possibility to promote the teaching and learning of students in the which interactions that may occur can contribute in order to favor future pedagogical actions with the use of WhatsApp. For this research, we opted for a mixed qualitative-quantitative research-action methodology, which arose from the need to overcome the gap between theory and practice.

    The third chapter, which will be the second article, entitled the use of WhatsApp to teach Matrices: a case study in the education of young people and adults in which it uses WhatsApp to work the content of Matrices in the area of knowledge of Mathematics through the conditions that the MatEJAZap tool enables in the teaching and learning of students, through a concept that makes the teacher-researcher have greater interaction and interactivity, thus developing a more focused mathematics for the teaching modality of Youth and Adult Education .

    It had a methodological path that encompassed the qualitative approach using the case study for this purpose and that we also present a self-assessment carried out by students that is inserted within the MatEJAZap tool.

    As a final product, it presents a guide to the entire process of building the MatEAZaptool and the possibilities for teaching and learning, bringing all documents and applications used throughout the process.

  • O presente estudo teve sua gênese a partir de uma inquietação da docente diante da realidade vivenciada dentro e fora da sala de aula, qual seja, o Ensino Superior, apesar das iniciativas do corpo pedagógico de ressignificação da prática docente, ainda é marcado, predominantemente, pelo protagonismo restrito à figura do professor, sendo os aprendizes, no caso em questão das Ciências da Saúde, percebidos como receptores de informações técnico-científicas sobre doenças e tratamentos. Porém a sociedade atual, cibercultural, sugere que o estudante seja alguém que busque construir seu conhecimento. Diante desse cenário, a pesquisa em questão tem por objetivo investigar as potencialidades e limitações de seminários virtuais assíncronos para o ensino de Histologia e para a construção de uma pesquisaformação do professor na Educação online. O trabalho classifica-se como sendo de natureza qualitativa, tendo como sujeitos os 38 alunos frequentes do 1º ano do curso de Enfermagem de uma Universidade de Alagoas. A coleta e análise dos dados se deu, respectivamente, pelas técnicas de Grupo Focal e Análise de Conteúdo. Tais procedimentos permitiram constatar que, apesar de algumas dificuldades enfrentadas, os seminários virtuais assíncronos instituíram nos discentes bons hábitos (estudo prévio antes da aula, métodos de organização e planejamento), consolidou teorias (planejamento e organização permitem concretização de objetivos), instigou desejos (ser professor, pesquisador) e promoveu o protagonismo deles, uma vez que houve o desenvolvimento de sua capacidade autônoma, estímulo a sua criatividade, incentivo a pesquisa, interação e colaboração em sala de aula e deu voz a eles. No que diz respeito a docente-pesquisadora, a contribuição mais significativa foi a mudança de paradigma pela qual se permitiu passar para aplicar uma estratégia didática inserida na cibercultura. Ou seja, antes da pesquisa, a educadora considerava as TDIC apenas como ferramentas tecnológicas digitais de apoio, porém, depois, especialmente pelos desafios que teve que transpor ao optar pela Educação online, enxergou a importância e se sentiu apta a integrá-las na sua prática docente. No que tange ao produto educacional, desenvolveu-se um artigo.

  • O uso da Aprendizagem Baseada em Problemas (ABP) pode favorecer a compreensão de conceitos matemáticos, e de modo particular, áreas de figuras planas, na perspectiva da resolução de problemas, e buscar desenvolver a autonomia, criatividade e o pensamento reflexivo dos sujeitos envolvidos, tanto professor como alunos. Esta pesquisa tem como objetivo analisar, no contexto das aulas de Matemática do Ensino Fundamental, a possibilidade de se desenvolver práticas de aprendizagem de áreas de figuras planas, baseada em problemas. A questão que impulsionou este estudo foi: Como a ABP pode contribuir na compreensão do conteúdo de áreas de figuras planas nas aulas de Matemática de alunos do 6º ano do Ensino Fundamental de uma escola privada localizada no município de Olho D’Água das Flores, no sertão alagoano? Essa pesquisa tem caráter qualitativo fundamentada nos estudos de Flick (2009) e Creswell (2010), com abordagem de pesquisa intervenção baseado em Galvão e Galvão (2017). Para coleta de dados utilizamos de entrevista semiestruturada fundamentada em Rodrigues (2019), das situações-problema desenvolvidas e realizadas pelos alunos, das discussões no grupo de WhatsApp e das maquetes produzidas pelos alunos. Para fins de análise, utilizamos a análise de conteúdo de Bardin (2016). Com a pesquisa concluída, constatamos que os sujeitos, ao refletir sobre suas práticas e resoluções, vislumbraram a possibilidade transformá-las a partir das contribuições teórico-metodológica da ABP, configurando como possibilidades e maneiras de aprender sobre área de figuras planas, pela interação e colaboração dos sujeitos envolvidos nesse estudo. Assim, como produto desta pesquisa materializa-se em uma proposta de aula a qual posteriormente será transformada em um e-book para ser compartilhado livremente na Internet.

  • Neste estudo abordam-se as potencialidades da videoanálise através do Software Tracker a fim de ressaltar a importância das Tecnologias Digitais da Informação e Comunicação (TDIC) para o ensino de Física. Por isso, o estudo tem como principal objetivo investigar as potencialidades didáticas da utilização de videoanálise para o ensino do fenômeno de queda de objetos, na direção vertical sobre o efeito da gravidade, nas aulas de Física do Ensino Médio, por meio do Software Tracker. Para tanto, delinearam-se os seguintes objetivos específicos: explorar as potencialidades do Tracker; e analisar estratégias pedagógicas, utilizando a videoanálise, que possam aproximar os modos de fazer Ciências de análise dos fenômenos naturais. Partindo desse escopo, buscou-se responder ao seguinte problema de pesquisa: o que emerge de possibilidades de utilização do software Tracker no estudo de fenômenos físico, em particular da queda livre? Assim, para o desempenho da pesquisa alguns instrumentos foram necessários: inicialmente a observação (a fim de observar a interação entre os estudantes); ficha de coleta de dados experimentais; questionário e a pesquisa bibliográfica. Com o intuito de responder ao problema de pesquisa e alcançar os objetivos traçados, se desenvolveu uma proposta de ensino com quatro turmas do 1º ano de uma escola pública de Palmeira dos Índios no Estado de Alagoas. Nessas turmas se observou de forma direta as interações com o software Tracker e o desempenho deles, em atividades de sala de aula, utilizando a videoanálise para registrar situações envolvendo o conceito de queda livre. Os dados coletados foram tratados através de uma Análise Textual Discursiva (ATD) em três categorias emergentes da pesquisa: 1ª) Percepção dos estudantes em conceitos físicos; 2ª) As potencialidades do software Tracker; e 3ª) Dificuldades enfrentadas pelos alunos durante a intervenção didática. Observou-se, assim, as potencialidades oferecidas pelo Tracker em promover análise de movimentos de forma detalhada, coleta e análise de dados mais precisos, e utilização de conceitos essenciais em uma prática experimental como fita de calibração como padrão de referência, eixo de coordenadas, centro de massa, fatores que influenciam a incerteza dos dados, bem como o registro dos dados em gráficos e tabelas.

  • In the face of technological advances and economic, environmental and social changes in an increasingly computerized society, Statistics has great social relevance. In this direction, this research set out to investigate the contributions of a Didactic Sequence, based on the perspective of the scientific investigation cycle, for the development of learning about reading, interpretation and construction of bar and line graph and the concept of scale. As a theoretical contribution, the following authors were used: Cazorla (2010), Vergnaud (2014), Gal (2002), Rumsey (2002) and Batanero (2001), among others, who explain and detail the importance of statistical literacy. A qualitative research-action-participant approach was used that was developed from the application of an SD for students in a class of 5th grade of elementary school in a public school in the Municipal Network of Maceió / Alagoas. The presence of Statistics in our daily lives shows the importance that, since the early years, the elementary concepts related to this area are addressed in the classroom aiming at the development of statistical thinking in a perspective of statistical literacy. In this way, education is promoted that contributes to the citizen and scientific education of all, more specifically students. Data collection took place through a field diary, records through photos, audios and materials produced by students during the development of the Didactic Sequence application. All students participated in the application of the pre-test, the Didactic Sequence and the post-test. The results obtained show that the teaching of Statistics in Basic Education cannot be limited to the context of reading only, but it is necessary to teach statistical concepts and procedures using the cycle of scientific investigation that will allow the student to problematize, plan and execute the research, thus promoting the development of statistical thinking.

  • Este trabalho perpassa por uma incursão teórica baseada na Pedagogia histórico crítica e na Psicologia histórico cultural. Nesse bojo de discussões teóricas consideramos que o trabalho intencional, planejado e sistematizado do professor permite que os estudantes se apropriem dos conhecimentos construídos pela humanidade historicamente, caracterizando o processo de humanização desses indivíduos. A partir dessa compreensão, centramos nossas discussões sobre o Ensino de Ciências e mais especificamente, o de Genética, ramo da Biologia envolvido no estudo da hereditariedade. Além de ser um campo de estudo com vários desdobramentos no âmbito educacional, ético, social, tecnológico e de saúde abarca uma rede de conceitos que envolve o saber matemático, capacidade de interpretação de textos, conhecimentos químicos e biológicos, por essa razão, o conteúdo de Genética é considerado problematizador. Com bases nessas considerações, este trabalho teve como objetivo principal, analisar os limites e as possibilidades do ensino dos conhecimentos básicos de Genética para estudantes do nono ano do Ensino Fundamental de uma escola pública. Nessa perspectiva, realizou-se uma intervenção pedagógica utilizando uma sequência didática com conhecimentos básicos de Genética. Nesse sentido, participaram da pesquisa trinta estudantes do nono ano do Ensino Fundamental de uma escola pública. O instrumento de coleta de dados consistiu na resolução de questionários (pré-teste e pós-teste) além da produção de textos dissertativos. Assim, buscou-se analisar os resultados sobre uma prática docente apoiada no conhecimento científico e na contribuição da transformação social para além do senso comum. A pesquisa permitiu-nos afirmar a importância do professor em contribuir não somente com a aprendizagem de conceitos científicos, mas também com o planejamento intencional de abordagens didático-pedagógicas que mobilizem nos estudantes suas funções psicológicas superiores e que se preocupa, portanto, com uma formação humana no seu sentido mais amplo.

This sequence was structured in the elaboration of a comic, through an online platform, and its creation was based on the mathematical content studied, being associated with another curricular discipline. In a sense, the main results of the work carried out focus on three points that were addressed in three categories: (a) The use of methodologies in an interdisciplinary way, as a motivating key to resize the learning process, both of the teacher and the student in the teaching of mathematics, in the etymological sense even of making new dimensioning of the TDIC, (b) Experience brought mechanism to experience hybrid teaching by Active Methodologies , highlighting reflections between the traditional and the contemporary, (c) Valorization of an interactionist environment within or outside a pedagogical environment enhancing the way of learning and (d) The challenges to the teaching action in the face of the provocations of the use of COMIC skills in the teaching of mathematics.

  • This dissertation started with the analysis of the Chemistry textbook, Martha Reis PNLD 2018, since it is a book of great requisition in the schools of the state of Alagoas, after analyzing the content of chemical kinetics present in the book of the 2nd year, we found absence of some indicators that, according to Pizarro 2014, are extremely important to guarantee scientific literacy at this level of education. In view of this, a didactic sequence was elaborated, which consists of evaluating an active learning methodology, rotation by season, as a way to increase students' interest. in chemistry classes, in addition to demystifying the idea that chemistry is a boring and difficult discipline, which is usually reported by students, after traditional discipline classes, within this sequence we approach the concepts related to chemical kinetics in everyday practices from the students. Understanding that this methodological intervention proposal could contribute to the teaching and learning process of Chemistry, we defined as a general objective to analyze the results of the experience / intervention of a didactic sequence proposed based on the methodology of rotation by seasons, mediated by the use of digital tools, to promote active learning of the concepts associated with the teaching of chemical kinetics. For this we use technological resources that range from showing videos such as Draw Chemistry to its own elaboration. Our proposal for a didactic sequence was based on the teaching of catalysis: chemical kinetics, since it is a subject seen in the classes of the 2nd year of high school, it is a subject in the area of physical chemistry, an area in which students present the worst performances, a time that combines knowledge in mathematics, physics and chemistry. We use the Blended Learning method: Station-Rotation Model, as it is a method of easy planning and execution, which does not require high investments and is highly flexible and adaptable. The application of the sequence took place at a reference state school in the city of Maceió for deaf students, the Tavares Bastos State school, with the participation of 25 students, four of whom were hearing impaired or deaf. We found that during the rotation some concepts were improved and there was greater learning, since the activities were geared to the students' daily lives, making it easier to assimilate and correlate. We adopted assumptions of the qualitative approach, which were classified within the action research strategy, whose data were collected through questionnaires, classroom observation and activities carried out in the learning stations, thus we concluded that the methodological proposal of rotation by stations contributed for the process of building the learning of chemical kinetics concepts, as a complement of the teaching work in the conceptual approach, aiming at a modification of the teaching process of Chemistry in the promotion of a more active and collaborative learning.

  • Show Abstract
  • In the context of Evolutionary Biology, the term Fitness can be translated as “degree of
    aptitude”, or “adaptive value”, a central concept for understanding this discipline. This term
    refers to how much a characteristic or set of characteristics, biological and/or behavioral, can
    contribute to the ability of living beings to survive and/or reproduce. It is the extent to which a
    trait of the living being affects its reproductive success. The Theory of Evolution (ET) is
    recognized as the guiding paradigm of Biological Sciences and in national curriculum
    documents it is highlighted as the central axis of this Science. Despite this, this theory is
    neglected in classrooms, both for lack of mastery of content by teachers and students, and for
    philosophical-religious conflicts that exist between it and common sense. In the ideas of
    Brazilian common sense, there is a greater connection with religious explanations about the
    processes of life diversification and ET presents itself as a possibility of naturalistic and
    materialistic understanding of biodiversity. The present work aims to contribute to the
    understanding of undergraduates in Biological Sciences about ET, bringing the discussion
    about Biological Evolution using the evolutionary concept of Fitness. Based on the Theory of
    Meaningful Learning (TAS) a Didactic Sequence is elaborated in order to offer a pedagogical
    tool for use in Biology classes. In the application of this material, a survey of prior knowledge
    is carried out before the pedagogical intervention and another, of knowledge acquired after the
    activities. For this, the 22 volunteers individually prepare brainstorms and concept maps, in
    each of these two moments. After this stage, there is a dialogued expository class focusing on
    the history of ET construction. Then there is a discussion on a text that deals with the concept
    of Evolutionary Fitness and a game on the same theme is presented. For data analysis, the most
    frequent terms used by the participants are highlighted and it is noted that in the initial material
    the participants highlight Darwin's name and terms related to taxonomy. A possible condition
    of the predominance of terms linked to taxonomy is the fact that the participants are studying
    the subject Taxonomy and Phylogenetic Systematics during the period of the research.
    However, they are also studying Ecology and, despite this, have few terms related to this area,
    for example, the word Niche, appears in only two initial brainstorms and in two initial concept
    maps. In the final brainstorms and concept maps, there is an increase to nine citations of
    Lamarck's name, which before is only cited once, and terms like Use and Disuse go from one
    to four citations. Qualitative results indicate that the term Fitness still escapes the understanding
    of the participants, as it is only present in the final brainstorms, but absent in the final concept
    maps, indicating difficulties in relating this term to the concepts of evolution. However, the
    appearance of the term shows that subsumers may have been built, which could be used by the
    participants in other learning opportunities. Finally, concept maps are scored and categorized,
    both initial and final. Most concept maps show an increase in score and the few that show a
    decrease demonstrate the participants' lack of skill in building the maps. After a new analysis
    of the material, the recurrent presence of words and/or terms related to the construction of the
    evolutionary theory is noted, thus generating a new categorization regarding the presence of a
    social-historical context regarding ET. In half of the final concept maps there is some reference
    to historical contexts regarding the construction of this theory. Thus, the Didactic Sequence is
    effective in collaborating with the participants' understanding of the process of elaborating
    scientific knowledge.

  • The current challenge of Science Education is more complex than making specific content understood, but providing ways in which students develop from their actions. Not an easy task for the student, nor for the teacher. Due to concerns about the Teaching of Cell Biology, specific objectives are sought (i) to analyze the conceptions of students and graduates in Biological Sciences regarding the Teaching of Science by Research focused on the content of Plasma Membrane; (ii) to develop support material for the Basic Education Biology teacher to support Teaching by Research on the Plasma Membrane; and (iii) to identify the potential of an Investigative Teaching Sequence (SEI) on Plasma Membrane for the Teaching of Biology in High School. Therefore, the general objective on which the research is based is to contribute to the practice of Basic Education Biology teachers on the Teaching of Plasma Membranes from the Teaching of Science by Research. For this purpose, a qualitative approach is used, with bibliographic research and Content Analysis of responses from the participants of this research, which makes it possible to reaffirm some needs found among professionals and academics in the field of teaching Biology, including the absence of the use or cogitation of investigative teaching in the area of Cytology. From this, a Technological Technical Product is developed, submitted to critical analysis by the same researched group. The built SEI integrates the Technological Technical Product of the Professional Master's Degree, which despite being initially thought for the teacher (volume 1), also unfolds in a material for the students of the 1st grade of High School (volume 2). As for SEI's potential for teaching Transport content through the Plasma Membrane, conditions are raised for the development of Scientific Literacy and social belonging in the perception of the participants, which is consistent with a possible and applicable method, promising to motivate and promote obliterating assimilations. It is also assumed that it provides interaction between Basic Education, Higher Education and academic productions. This dissertation culminates in the dissemination of information about the current classroom and an investigative didactic approach.

  • A Progressão Geométrica é um conteúdo da Matemática que faz parte do currículo escolar da Educação Básica e, tendo em vista que a cultura digital tem atraído muitas pessoas da atualidade, esta pesquisa teve como objetivo principal analisar quais resultados o jogo digital Quiz PG pode produzir a partir da sua utilização didática para o aprendizado do conteúdo de Progressão Geométrica (P.G). Como objetivos específicos, pretendeu-se identificar as possibilidades e limitações do jogo digital Quiz PG na construção do conhecimento de P.G. dos alunos do primeiro ano do Ensino Médio; verificar como o jogo digital Quiz PG contribui no processo de aprendizagem tomando como base a percepção dos alunos; comparar o desenvolvimento do aprendizado de P.G. por intermédio de notas de aula, atividades propostas em papel A4 e por meio do jogo digital; desenvolver o jogo digital Quiz PG utilizando a linguagem do App Inventor; elaborar um manual didático para professores de Matemática com uma proposta de sequência didática para utilização do jogo digital Quiz PG. Esta pesquisa é de cunho exploratório do tipo participante e abordagem qualitativa, realizada com 16 alunos de uma turma do primeiro ano do Ensino Médio, da Escola Estadual Prof.ª Margarez Mª Santos Lacet. A produção dos dados se deu mediante as atividades realizadas em momentos de construção do aprendizado por meio de notas de aula no quadro e resolução de problemas executados manualmente, bem como a utilização do game construído com a linguagem de programação do App Inventor 2 (AI2). Além disso, foi aplicado um questionário com perguntas objetivas e discursivas a respeito da avaliação que cada participante fez da interface do game utilizado durante o processo de ensino e aprendizagem de P.G. Além desses registros, foi utilizado o método da observação participante e utilização de diário de campo, onde constam registros dos acontecimentos que foram relevantes no decorrer da pesquisa, bem como das ideias e inquietações que foram emergindo. Constatou-se que uma minoria de alunos participou de forma ativa da aula expositiva e explicativa do conteúdo de P.G., com o uso das notas de aula no quadro. O jogo digital Quiz PG elaborado no AI2 contribuiu no processo de aprendizagem, devido a sua interatividade, possibilidade de acesso ao conteúdo via YouTube, mobilidade, feedback imediato das respostas aos problemas, entretenimento, experiência de jogo com resolução de problemas matemáticos e teve boa aceitação dos alunos devido a motivação proveniente do ato de jogar, propiciando assim o engajamento de todos os participantes da pesquisa durante o jogo. Foi possível também perceber que os sujeitos envolvidos se sentiram mais motivados em responder os problemas propostos no jogo devido ao feedback que recebiam. Como produto educacional, foi elaborado um manual didático para professores de Matemática com uma proposta de sequência didática para utilização do jogo digital Quiz PG.
