O uso da aprendizagem cooperativa no ensino de Química: uma alternativa para o ensino de funções orgânicas

Abstract

The present work refers to a teaching methodology known as cooperative learning, a methodology that is based on the study of cooperative groups. It aims at demonstrate the application of Cooperative Learning using two of its techniques, in order to verify the performance and participation, the efficacy of the methods in relation to the learning of organic chemistry in the chemistry teaching of the students of the 3° year of high school, and whether these methods can serve as a means to reduce the difficulties in teaching chemistry. The two techniques were applied in two classes of the 3° year of high school, class "A" and class "B", belonging to the morning shift of the Ozildo Albano School Unit located in the city of Picos-PI. The methodology used for this work was bibliographic research based on the reading of works that involve the same theme, together with a field research where the techniques jig saw and cooperative queue were applied for the purpose of making analyzes with quantitative and qualitative approaches by means of survey research. At the end of the research it was possible to verify that the students feel a lot of difficulty in relation to the learning of chemistry, however, the application of methodologies that are different from the traditional ones are able to improve the student's learning, thus being more efficient and understandable
