Abstract

This article aims to investigate the contributions of using Facebook through a pedagogical intervention in Chemistry classes, with students of the 2nd grade of High School, from a State school in the North Zone of the city of Manaus - AM. The research made use of Fanpage, creating it for students to discuss, post and clarify doubts about the contents of Chemistry, since from the records, it was found some of the difficulties encountered by students in understanding the contents of this curricular component were due to monotonous classes, which justified their lack of encouragement and interest. After the pedagogical intervention, with the use of Facebook in class it was found, through the students' speeches, that the learning of the contents was satisfactory, since it helped the teacher, and themselves, who were able to answer questions and interact in the forums, sending videos and questions about the contents studied, contributing to the greater involvement of all. It became evident that the use of social network, in this case Faceboock, can be used to analyze and resolve issues and exercises of programmatic content, solving doubts more quickly, with the exchange of knowledge and information. This research highlights the importance of the relationship between student and teacher, and the need to encourage the free expression of students and the use of applications and software for their educational process, in all disciplines.
