Avifauna do sertão sergipano : proposta de intervenção no ensino de ciências e biologia por meio da produção de uma sequência didática

Abstract

This research proposes an intervention in teaching through the creation of a didactic sequence (DS), that is, a specific order and/or logical succession of activities. This DS was structured and based on didactic materials aimed at scientific literacy. The teacher will use this sequence in science and biology classes, specifically addressing knowledge objects related to biodiversity, focusing on birds of the Columbidae family in the Caatinga biome. The DS was structured into three main stages: a bird identification class and class diagnosis through a folder; interaction with various environments through a field trip; and conclusion with a case study activity and simulated jury. The use of the folder will allow students to assimilate scientific knowledge in parallel with popular and prior knowledge. The field trip will provide immersion in ecosystems, especially in the bird family in question, promoting a deeper understanding of the subject and local issues. In the final stage, the focus will be on critical thinking skills and argumentation, through the case study and simulated jury, stimulating multifaceted discussions on the topic. Thus, it is expected that the application of this sequence will promote the process of scientific literacy (SL), address socioscientific issues (SSI), and teaching through argumentation (TAA), providing academic and personal development of students through awareness of the theme and consolidation of learning.
