O ensino da função orgânica amina por meio de um jogo didático em um enfoque CTS

Abstract

This paper aimed to develop a didactic game for teaching the organic function amine focusing in Science-Technology-Society (STS) and its main contributions. The study was performed with 50 senior high school students of the morning period from a public school in Ponta Grossa. Quantitative and evaluation methodological approaches were used. For data collection a questionnaire with open-ended and closed-ended questions was used. However, in order to expand the data collection, field diary notes, audio and video recording were used. The total of activities performed was divided in 15 moments, in which it was attempted to establish social relationships of science and technology. The main results made evident that initially they had no knowledge of this function and its social implications. It was possible to realize that the use of the game proposed in this study stimulated the student's curiosity and learning, showing it as a strategy for teaching and for social, emotional and intellectual development of students. In relation to concepts of science and technology, it was noticed by the study that most of them still have a linear view on science, but they have become more reflexive about its social implications.
