Soluções químicas para a contextualização do ensino de química na educação de jovens e adultos

Abstract

Contextualization plays a relevant role in Youth and Adult Education (EJA), as it establishes a connection between the content studied and the students' reality. In this sense, the present study reports the development of a teaching proposal based on contextualization in order to minimize the difficulties in understanding students enrolled in an EJA class regarding the concepts of Chemical Solutions. To this end, qualitative research was carried out in a VI stage class at the Emilia Soares de Araújo School Unit in Cocal-PI. The proposal involved the resolution of problem situations by students in a theoretical and practical way. The development of the research consisted of the application of questionnaires before and after the application of the teaching proposal. From the analysis of the data obtained, the contributions of the activities carried out to the students' learning in relation to chemical solutions were identified. Most students achieved greater conceptual understanding, recognizing the importance and applicability of chemical solutions in their daily lives. The students expressed greater interest
