Proposta de uma sequência didática para o ensino de eletroquímica: biossensor como ferramenta de intervenção didática no processo de ensino-aprendizagem

Abstract

To mitigate the main difficulties encountered in the teaching and learning process, methodologies are proposed with a focus on didactics more focused on research, investigation and experimentation actions, which may provide more active strategies from the didactic and pedagogical point of view, facilitating the participation of the student. student in this process. The contents in electrochemistry have been frequently pointed out by high school teachers and students as one of the subjects that represents great difficulties in the teaching - learning process. In view of the difficulty exposed, this research aimed to develop a didactic sequence to alleviate the learning difficulties in teaching electrochemistry using the biosensors as input. The teaching methodologies proposed for the study of the concepts about galvanic cells (batteries) involve practical experimental activities through investigation and problem solving (problem situation). For this purpose, it was proposed to use the functioning of electrochemical biosensors as a didactic tool for conceptual knowledge applied to electrochemistry. In this way, the use of specific methodologies for teaching chemistry promotes significant results, allowing the student to reflect and resolve the contradictions of problematic situations as a resource in the construction of concepts, making the student's learning process effective.
