O USO DE METODOLOGIAS ATIVAS NO ENSINO DE CIÊNCIAS BIOLÓGICAS

Abstract

The present study aims to seek a theoretical basis for understanding Active Methodologies as a facilitating tool in the teaching-learning process in the area of Biological Sciences. The chosen authors are emphatic in affirming the importance of using Active Methodologies, which requires breaking with the traditional model, which promotes great challenges to be faced due to the degree of complexity in the disciplines of Biological Sciences. They guide that the use of Active Methodologies in science teaching facilitates the teaching-learning process, with the use of appropriate pedagogical materials, as an important tool in the significant conception of the awareness of cognitive learning, allowing a positive transformation in school development, aiming at training of proactive students interested in studies and knowledge acquisition. The study was carried out through a literature review, based on scientific articles, books, monographs, dissertations and data available on Google Scholar and Scielo, characterizing the work of an exploratory nature. The scientific theoretical basis is anchored in works by Morán (2015), Freire (1995), Moreira (2006), Kischimoto (1994), among other theorists who discuss Education in Biological Sciences and Active Methodologies. There was no doubt, during the research, in understanding the need for education to engage in the evolution process, considering the use of technologies to improve the teaching-learning process.
