A utilização da química forense no ensino de química na 3° série do ensino médio através da utilização de experimentos com materiais alternativos

Abstract

This article will address the teaching of chemistry in the contents of organic functions and chromatography through the aid of forensic chemistry experiments. The objective of this work was to elucidate if the use of forensic chemistry experiments in the classroom can influence the teaching-learning process of the third year students in relation to the content of organic functions and chromatography. The specific objectives are: to know the students' knowledge regarding the research through an initial and final questionnaire; guide students in the execution of forensic chemistry experiments with concrete materials; analyze students' opinions regarding the research. The methodology was based on a field research, under quali-quantitative approach and hypothetical-deductive method. The results of the final questionnaire showed that students' learning progressed and that the use of Forensic Chemistry experiments in the classroom is a determining factor in the teaching-learning process.
