A importância da aula prática no laboratório de Biologia em uma escola pública de Bertolínia - PI

Abstract

This article aims to highlight the benefits of practical classes in biology laboratory in a public school of Bertolínia-PI. It is understood that when working with this didactic strategy, facilitating and optimizing teaching-learning, great benefits are obtained both in the learning of students and for the professional life of the teacher. As a methodology, field research was used through the application of a questionnaire at two moments of the research, to verify the knowledge and perception of students in relation to biology class, in addition to the development of two laboratory practices with the participation of students. A total of 23 2nd grade students from high school from a public school in Bertolínia-PI participated in the study. This research found that the benefits of practical classes are visible when students are perceived to advance in the learning process. The questionnaire data indicated that when classes are purely theory classes become boring and tiring, while having a practical class students have greater interest and participate more in classes. Thus it is necessary a change of posture on the part of the teacher for their classes to become more dynamic.
