A eletricidade no ensino de ciências por meio dos três momentos pedagógicos

Abstract

The present research analyzed contributions that the use of the theme "Rays and Lightning" provided to the students of the middle school in learning the concepts of electricity, present in the curriculum of the discipline of Sciences for that series. It was noted in the research that the thematic established relations between scientific and experiential concepts present in the family and community environment. This topic aroused curiosity and interest in the students because, in addition to being relevant to the curriculum, it is related to the daily life of the city of Campo Grande, in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul, since, in this locality there was a high incidence of electric discharges that, in addition to causing accidents, can lead to fires and even kill people and animals. The work followed the criteria of qualitative research with an interpretative and naturalistic approach, based on the dialogue and the problematization and based on the methodology of the Three Pedagogical Moments (3MP). This methodology is divided into three sequential stages: Problematization, Organization of the Knowledge and Application. It is a dynamic didactic-pedagogical methodology, based on the perspective of a thematic approach to promoting the transposition of Paulo Freire's conception of education into the formal education space. It favors the promotion of critical students with democratic attitudes based on community and autonomy. From data collected through the researcher's diary, class diary and student research outputs, a great opportunity was observed for students' learning as well as for the promotion of the human being. By linking scientific concepts to reality through this approach, the students became active subjects in the process of learning and searching for knowledge, developed the ability to reflect and autonomy articulated to the sense of collective and mutual respect, all based on in an essentially dialogical process.
