Atividade Experimental Problematizada (AEP): uma proposta investigativa ao ensino da Química

Abstract

This Course Completion Work addresses the themes of investigative experimentation and Problematized Experimental Activity (PEA). The Research Problem was: What are the possibilities of a teaching process, based on AEP, to foster connections, established by students, between Chemistry treated in the classroom and their everyday problems? Thus, in the planned and developed activities, an attempt was made to stimulate the students' investigative and participative character, through experiments, evaluating the knowledge construction process, within the scope of the Chemistry component of High School. It was noticed that there were ample possibilities for experimentation to contribute to the teaching and learning of Chemistry, based on the relationships between its contents and the students' everyday aspects.
