Sequência didática no modelo de rotação por estações para o ensino de química usando como temática o uso e descarte consciente de medicamentos

Abstract

This work aimed the production, application and evaluation of the Hybrid model of Rotation by Stations within a Teaching Sequence that problematized the theme "Use and Conscious Disposal of Medicines", since a major public health problem today is self-medication and the incorrect disposal of medicines can generate serious environmental problems and the contamination of people and animals. The study was applied with 15 students from the 3rd year of high school in a Comprehensive Citizen School in the city of João Pessoa - PB and has a qualitative character. The didactic sequence occurred in five classes of 50 minutes and addressed the content of oxygenated and nitrogenated organic functions. Thus, for the problematization of the theme and the development of the chemical content it was used the model of Rotation by Stations that occurred in three different school spaces: the video room, the classroom and the science lab. For this, five stations were created: the Reading Station, the Movie Theater Station, the Video Classroom Station, the Experimental Station, and the Station Identifying the Functional Groups. Based on this study, it was concluded that the Rotation by Stations model proved to be effective for the teaching of chemistry, as it improved the teachinglearning relationship, and was evaluated as great or excellent by most of the students. Moreover, the Rotation by Stations model is a great ally in personalizing teaching, taking into account that people have different ways of learning. It is noteworthy that the use of the Teaching Sequence helped in the organization of the stations and allowed students to see the chemistry present in their daily lives in a critical way, raising awareness of the class for more conscious practices and contributing to the formation of citizens responsible for their health, other citizens and the environment.
