CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE TEACHING OF SCIENCE USING TECHNOLOGY: DIGITAL GAMES FOR TEACHING BIOLOGY AND CHEMISTRY IN THE NINTH GRADE OF ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, BASED ON HEALTHY FOOD

Abstract

The research proposes to analyze and reflect on science teaching through the use of tools aimed at biology and chemistry addressed and introduced in schools. Meaningful teaching proposals are raised and evaluated regarding their performance, using technologies as a tool to help students in classes, with a game. Based on the study of articles such as “Active learning methodologies in Professional and Technological Education”; “Children and interest in science: an action-based study to promote meaningful learning” and; “Teachers' perceptions and practices of teaching science and biology in the pandemic: an investigation of Regional 2 of SBEnBio”, demonstrates an important observation, from the article mentioned in “SBGames” and the observation about games in the article cited from the “VIII National Education Congress”, as a strategy for renewing school practice in elementary school, which with the active methodology, brings a format that adds data to intervene with a meaningful approach to post-pandemic science teaching. The authors propose tools and discussions that are relevant to current didactics. The article also aims at a reflection on the objectives of scientific education with biochemistry and food, through the technological resource game “Mostro Comilão”, suggesting an investigative methodology on learning with digital games for 9th grade classes of elementary school. The conclusions point to the need for a redefinition of the teaching staff when teaching science to the ninth school year and in the way of conducting teaching activities, in order to verify that it is efficient when it causes satisfaction and expansion of the students' cognitive structure, considering the topics addressed. in the cited articles.
