Caminhos do cerrado: desenvolvimento e análise de metodologia para o ensino de ciências em escolas públicas de Jardim - MS

Abstract

This research aims to analyze, through visits to existing trails in the city of Jardim - MS, concepts and practices of science teachers on the Cerrado and contribute to the proposition of a teaching methodology for science and environmental education. The proposal is to consider proposing methodological possibilities for teaching strategic subsidies towards the construction of pedagogical tools for science teaching with appropriations from the spaces of the Cerrado. The research uses a qualitative approach and non-experimental design. The development is to propose a course for continuing education activities involving two environments: the classroom and trails of the Bioma Cerrado, those existing in the vicinity of attractive " Buraco da Araras" in Jardim - MS. To collect the survey data, we used the following tools: semi-structured questionnaire, two lesson plans - Plan I in the initial phase, Plan II in the next phase - steps and the final report of the course. The samples analyzed were tabulated according to the methodological principles of Textual analysis. The fundamentals that guided the theorizing of the results conform to the perspective of cultural-historical theory. The conceptual assumptions of this theory to the greatest extent possible pedagogical procedures more specific to the course as well as adjacent grounds in relation to the processes of teaching and learning. The essence of these concepts has become indispensable to the completion of data collection involving the subjects and elements of the track of the Bioma Cerrado. The training course for teachers also addressed the environmental education in line with the context of the biodiversity of the Cerrado. This course involved methodological contributions to science teaching, with propositions for building tools and teaching strategies for teachers, which directly affect the teaching of science and related areas, making use of the Bioma Cerrado. Through didactic pedagogical rationale of the theoretical framework of this research were made adjustments deemed relevant to the construction of the script class field practice, mounting the continuing education course of this research and theorizing. Eleven teachers attended this course with the degree course, subject rulers in public schools in Jardim - MS.
