Análise das aulas de biologia durante a pandemia de Covid-19 em Dois Vizinhos - PR: um enfoque no ensino de genética

Abstract

This research focuses on distance Biology classes during the Sars-CoV-2 pandemic in the city of Dois Vizinhos, Paraná. With the closing of schools, classes started to be made available in remote and digital format. In view of this change, we sought to analyze the progress of Biology classes in high school classes, and for this, questionnaires were applied to teachers and students in order to present the interviewees' perception about remote classes and activities, especially the contents of Genetics and Evolution. The research showed that both students and teachers demonstrate little satisfaction. Teachers report difficulties in preparing remote classes on genetics and care about student learning. Many students pointed out that they did not receive help from parents in their home studies and when a question arises, they mainly use the internet. Several genetics contents were worked on by the teachers to explain many issues related to the new coronavirus, evidencing its importance in the student training. At the end of the work, it is clear the students desire to return to presential classes and the uncertainty of when it will happen, but somehow this moment provided recognition of the weaknesses and potentialities of the compilation of distance learning with the presential.
