Abordagem de temas no âmbito do PIBID: impactos do trabalho a partir de uma proposta CTS

Abstract

Research in the area of Science Education has recognized and defended themes approach. Other research has shown the potential of the Programa Institucional de Bolsas de Iniciação à Docência (PIBID) in the development of several works in Basic Education. Based on this, the present work seeks to investigate how the PIBID can contribute to the construction and application of a thematic proposal. To this end, a teaching proposal based on the theme "Votorantim in Caçapava do Sul: Advantages and Disadvantages" was constructed and applied in the context of the subproject Physics /PIBID UNIPAMPA Campus Caçapava do Sul/RS, based on approaches to Science Technology Society (STS). The proposal was applied in a second year of high school class, from a public school system in the city of Caçapava do Sul/RS. To obtain the data, an interview was conducted with the pibidians and a logbook was written by the researcher. The analysis of the data was done through Discursive Textual Analysis. The results were organized through three categories: i) Interdisciplinarity involved in the proposal; ii) Relevance of the theme chosen; iii) Social aspects of the proposal. It is understood that there were difficulties in carrying out the interdisciplinary work, but that these difficulties were partially overcome due to the involvement with the PIBID, and by the help of referentials involving STS. It is also possible to highlight that the chosen theme had an impact on the participation of the students in the classroom, but also contributed to the discussions regarding the social aspects. It is also worth mentioning the participation of PIBID in the improvement of work based on themes, as well as the importance of the application of thematic proposals, in what refers to the construction of knowledge and citizenship.
