A importância da pesquisa para a prática pedagógica dos professores do ensino de Ciências Biológicas

Abstract

The scope of the Biological Sciences is characterized by a vast territory that is neither watertight nor immutable or traditionalist. Following the evolution of discoveries and being part of the studies and knowledge that is being built at all times is one more competence of the education professional. Using the research as a source and/or procedural subsidy for this search constitutes a positive and very feasible alternative. This study aims to discuss the importance of research to the teacher in his practice of Biological Sciences teaching, considering the need for the teacher to research his own practice to intervene reflexively in his pedagogical reality. In order to reach the proposed goal, we chose to make a bibliographic study, carried out by means of articles, books and scientific journals. For this purpose, we used references by Freire (1996), Demo (2000), Gatti (2002), Abreu e Almeida (2008), Libâneo (2005), and other authors that make the present study feasible by providing theoretical basis. As a result of the revised literature, it was possible to understand that the reflective teacher has a more consistent, improved and innovative teaching performance, which means to recognize the importance of the research practice as a teaching-learning methodological contribution. Therefore, the research is an indispensable tool for the teaching of biological sciences, since the scientific knowledge is in accelerated process of evolution
