Jogos Didáticos no Ensino de Botânica: Enraizando e Batalha Algal

Abstract

A Botânica é negligenciada no ensino de Biologia para o ensino fundamental e médio. Dessa forma, o Projeto de Ensino Jogos Botânicos, do Laboratório de Sistemática e Evolução de Plantas da Universidade Federal de Pelotas, foi criado para abordar o ensino de Botânica de forma lúdica, buscando tornar os assuntos relacionados ao reino das plantas mais interessantes e próximos da comunidade. Nesse sentido, foram elaborados jogos didáticos com intuito de apresentar os assuntos de forma simples e atraente aos estudantes. O jogo Enraizando foi inspirado em um tabuleiro dinâmico de xadrez, tornando o ensino de fisiologia vegetal mais interessante aos alunos. Da mesma forma, o jogo Batalha Algal foi inspirado no jogo batalha naval, dinamizando os conteúdos referentes às algas. Este trabalho apresenta propostas didáticas no ensino de Botânica, a fim de auxiliar os professores, do ensino fundamental e médio, em uma transposição didática mais efetiva e de maneira lúdica.

Importance of STEM and STEAM Education for Improvement of the Land in the RURAL Environment: Examples in Latin America

“…STEAM allows the generation of ideas to solve local problems and can contribute to developing interdisciplinary experiences, motivating students to participate in projects linked to the subjects that comprise it, and promoting cultural diversity [82]. According to Ochoa et al [75], the STEAM community broadcasting solidarity extension project in Magdalena Medio was developed so that the peasantry can remain in the territory and live in harmony with animal and plant species through the defense of peasant culture and food sovereignty through agroecological practices, as well as peacefully resisting war [75].The STEAM project Campesino Laboratory for the Transition to Agroecology (Lab Campesino) [83], developed between 2018 and 2019, was a solidarity extension project led by groups of students from the faculties of engineering, sciences, and arts of the National University of Colombia and the rural organization, Tierra Libre, to generate a space for rural youth and children for exploration, experimentation and prototyping around agroecology, co-creation, and community organization, promoting adaptive habitat, production, and consumption systems. Projects of this nature make rural inhabitants more linked to their environment and more respectful of the surrounding environment.…”
