Educação sexual no ensino de biologia : problematizações a partir de fanzines

Abstract

The present work aims to carry out an analysis of fanzines created by students of a first-year high school class of a state school in Sergipe, in order to identify the narratives and discourses related to the themes of Sex Education that emerge from the production of fanzines in the context of Biology teaching. The bibliographic research carried out had an exploratory character and addressed post-structuralist studies related to sexual and gender diversity. The work adopted a qualitative research approach, focusing on cultural analysis. The cultural analysis aims to understand how the narratives of the students of the 1st year of High School are materialized in the production of fanzines, contributing to the problematization of discourses on the themes of Sex Education. Thus, the main results showed that, in general, students have (mis)knowledge about the themes of Sex Education and an essentialist view marked by prescriptive and hygienist approaches, which are reflections of a content-based curriculum. However, the visual representations of the fanzines proved to be a tool of great potential in the construction of new (un)learning about the themes of Sex Education in school.
