Alfabetização científica na formação de professores: a proposta do curso e a concepção dos docentes de Ciências da Natureza - Licenciatura

Abstract

Our research aimed to identify the concepts of scientific literacy in this course in Natural Sciences-Degree, which aims to train teachers to work in the teaching of natural sciences, in elementary education, and natural of science, in the high school. The use of open interview was used to collect the data, followed by analysis and categorization. To analyze the Pedagogical Project Course (PPC), a matrix was developed that served as a comparison parameter. As regards the conceptions of teachers, all respondents have an empirical conception of the subject, they are complementary. So, may be encompassed in a general perception of science literacy. In the guidelines of the course, we identified the presence of process indicators, like in literature. We can infer that there is scientific literacy in the course, but not as a goal, but not intentionally, as a result of the curriculum.
