Análise do uso de filmes e documentários como ferramenta metodológica para o ensino de Química, na escola (CETI) Deputado Pinheiro Machado em Cocal - PI

Abstract

Active methodologies in Chemistry teaching have proved to be an effective approach for promoting meaningful learning. Within these methodologies, the use of films and documentaries is analyzed. For this reason, this paper presents the research carried out with 1st grade “A” students at the CETI Deputado Pinheiro Machado school in Cocal-PI. The research, conducted by the authors, had the general objective of analyzing whether the use of films and documentaries contributes to learning the contents of the Chemistry subject. For the study, bibliographic articles were read in order to identify and select works that addressed concepts, applications and contexts related to what the students were studying in class, in order to find out later if they were valuable and contributed to learning. At the same time, we sought to find out the impact of the works on personal reflections through the answers to the questionnaire. In addition, it was possible to find out from the students' responses whether the Chemistry teacher uses these resources in their lessons, as in other subjects, and what the difficulties are. Data was collected by means of a questionnaire after the classroom exhibitions. The results indicate that the methodology adopted, using films and documentaries, was successful in promoting effective learning. However, it is important to note that the effectiveness of these strategies can vary depending on the work chosen. The research discusses the challenges and possibilities of using these resources in the context of Chemistry teaching
