As Tecnologias Digitais da Informação e Comunicação (TDICS) no ensino de química: vídeos na abordagem do conteúdo ácidos e bases

Abstract

Technologies have become increasingly indispensable in daily life, considered fundamental elements for the functioning of various areas of society. Such development has influenced educational practices, particularly regarding Digital Information and Communication Technologies (DICT). The main objective of this research is to analyze the approach to the topic of acids and bases on YouTube pages maintained by professionals trained in the field and with teaching experience. Therefore, the adopted methodology follows a qualitative approach, predominantly descriptive in nature. The research goes beyond documentary and bibliographic approaches, seeking to explore the importance of technologies in the teaching-learning process, focusing on the use of videos as a methodological tool. In this context, four (4) videos from YouTube channels dedicated to teaching Chemistry were analyzed, selected based on training, availability, and curriculum updates on the Lattes Platform in recent times 24 months. The analysis considered criteria such as content depth, use of analogies, adopted language, and use of images, according to the dimensions proposed by Valença et al. (2021), with adaptations. The selected videos addressed the topic of acids and bases, with different levels of depth and teaching strategies. Therefore, it is concluded that the analyzed videos, by addressing the topic of acids and bases with accessible language, contextualized analogies, and the use of images, demonstrated potential to enhance students' understanding and reinforce the concepts worked on in the classroom to connect theory and practice, supporting preparation for external assessments. Thus, the analyzed resources highlight videos as complementary tools, especially when integrated in an organized manner into pedagogical planning.
