O ensino de ciências e a cultura maker com o laboratório de fabricação digital FabLearn: um estudo de caso da elaboração e implementação de sequências didáticas no ensino fundamental II no município de Sobral

Abstract

Research carried out in the area of science education points to the existence of possibilities for achieving excellent results in the learning of elementary school students in public schools. Results that reach an effective level of depth in the proposed contents. The construction of science didactic sequences and implementation addressing themes in the area, motivation and stimulation of students to solve problem situations has proved to be of great value with regard to student learning. However, just the construction of a proposed didactic sequence to achieve learning is not enough. It is necessary to understand the stages and moments of each activity, leaving them well defined so that it is possible to intervene and monitor the performance of students to help guide them during the learning process. The present study deals with the qualitative analysis of four didactic sequences of applied sciences in a full-time school in the municipal network of Sobral-Ce as part of the implementation of the new science curriculum of the municipality guided by the FabLearn team for the construction of a manual with four sequences science didactics as an educational product. The construction of the stages and detailed moments of four didactic sequences was carried out in four grades of elementary school (6th, 7th, 8th and 9th years) and its implementation brought some evidence that allow a more in-depth qualitative analysis and a redesign of these sequences for the construction of a teachers manual as an educational product that aims to bring more meaningful learning within science education. The results made available here were collected and analyzed from these applications. What is expected with the analysis of the didactic sequences applied is the possibility of a more detailed redesign of each sequence and its insertion within a didactic sequences manual that will be used by other teachers who in turn will be able to adapt the activities according to their school contexts always aiming at students' learning.
