Educação em saúde no ensino de ciências: videoaulas bilíngues libras-português sobre infecções sexualmente transmissíveis

Abstract

The general aim of the research is to express the expected contributions of bilingual Libras-Portuguese video lessons as an inclusive didactic resource for Health Education in Science teaching. As a methodological procedure, the following stages were defined: (i) bibliographic survey; (ii) documentary research, with analysis of curricular documents that guide the teaching of Sciences in Basic Education; (iii) preparation of the final product, with the production of bilingual Libras-Portuguese educational videos, on Sex Education, for Health Education of deaf and hearing students. Due to complications in the process, only the first video in the Bilingual Sex Education for the Deaf series was produced, featuring signs referring to the human body and others that make up a general vocabulary related to sexuality and gender diversity. In summary, this research shows that videos in Libras play a fundamental role in promoting sexual health in the deaf community, offering accessible, understandable and culturally relevant information about STIs. With a continued focus on interdisciplinary collaboration, content quality and dissemination strategies, these resources can become a powerful tool for reducing the incidence of STIs and improving the overall health of the deaf community.
