Análise dos conteúdos de botânica nos livros didáticos antes e após a aprovação da nova BNCC

Abstract

Among the areas studied in Biology is Botany, whose study objective is plants. Studies indicate that the delivery of this content in Basic Education has been considered outdated and complex, often being conveyed in a fragmented manner, increasing the statistics of individuals with Botanical blindness. Botanical content is usually delivered to students with the assistance of textbooks, and considering the changes that have occurred in the country's Basic Education with the new National Common Curricular Base, the aim of this study was to analyze and compare whether there have been positive changes in the presentation of Botanical content in high school textbooks. The research method was based on a qualitative approach, consisting of documentary research followed by content analysis. Some criteria and thematic axes were used for better organization of the research. After the analysis, it was found that the changes did not favor the teaching of Botany, as there was a significant loss of this content in the analyzed textbooks, leading to an increase in individuals with botanical blindness.
