ENSINO DE BIOLOGIA A DISTÂNCIA: DESAFIOS E OPORTUNIDADES NA EDUCAÇÃO DIGITAL

Abstract

The general aim of this work is to analyze the impact and main difficulties related to adapting biology content in the context of distance learning, focusing on the methodologies, technologies and teaching practices involved. The research was conducted through a literature review, using academic articles, books and relevant scientific publications on the subject. The justification for this study lies in the growing need to adapt educational content to the digital environment, especially in subjects that traditionally require laboratory practice, such as biology. Adapting for distance learning brings significant challenges, including technological limitations, difficulties in teacher training and the need for tools that guarantee effective and interactive learning. Among the main results, we highlight active methodology approaches and the use of digital technologies, such as virtual laboratories and simulations, which show potential for improving engagement and facilitating the understanding of complex content. However, the review also points to the need for a more robust infrastructure and continuous training for teachers in order to optimize biology teaching in the virtual environment.
