Modelos, modelagens e analogias: uma revisão da literatura em cinco periódicos no período de 2007 a 2020

Abstract

Models, models and analogies: a literature review in five journals from 2007 to 2020 aims to provide a bibliographic survey in important Brazilian journals in this time frame. They are: Science and Education (Bauru), Experiences in Science Teaching, Investigations in Science Teaching, Brazilian Journal of Education and Magazine Debates in Chemistry Teaching, all classified as Qualis CAPES A or B, in order to analyze trends , in the literature, related to models, models and analogies in Science teaching. To achieve the objectives, the research field of each journal was searched and articles that addressed the themes of the work presented here were selected. The reading of the texts and screening of the subjects that were in the perspective of this research were carried out, and in the end there were 70 articles that were in line with this proposal. Regarding the first objective, categories were established in order to carry out the analysis and discussion. For the second objective, the articles were read and grouped according to the similarity of the topics covered. From the results obtained, it was possible to assess that in these 13 years analyzed there is a considerable number of articles in the chosen magazines, which shows that research in the line of models, models and analogies is being developed, with a small peak in 2011 and intensifying more from the year 2016. When compiling the analyzed articles, it was observed that they presented trends for the theme models, with 65.3%, followed by the theme analogies with 20% and modeling, with 14.7% of the works evaluated. A great emphasis was observed in the field research approach, carried out in schools and universities, for example, in research from the student's perspective and in relation to the chemistry contents covered, Atomic Models, Molecular Geometry, Chemical Kinetics, Isomerism and Solubility. Modeling-related research needs to reach the classroom, as well as studies aimed at other didactic teaching strategies as well. There are many works by researchers who were willing, studied, applied and published, but somehow this knowledge faces obstacles to reaching the students' reality.
