Abstract

This project proposes the development and evaluation of teaching materials for teaching Chemistry and Sciences, integrating educational technologies and the STEAM perspective (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics). The proposal seeks to align itself with the National Common Curricular Base (NCCB), emphasizing essential skills and abilities for the education of students. The main contents focus on Environmental Chemistry and Green Chemistry, allowing direct connections with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The scholarship holder linked to this work plan will work mainly on the development and evaluation of Multistrategic Teaching Units (MTU) on the topics of ocean acidification and the development of air and water quality measurement systems, incorporating active methodologies such as Project-Based Learning (PBL) and the Three Pedagogical Moments (3PM). The scholarship holder will also be responsible for monitoring the implementation and evaluation of the MTU with teachers in training, in addition to the production of multimodal and multistrategic educational resources, such as videos, podcasts and infographics.
