Abstract

Curricular gaps regarding algae not only result in a lack of knowledge about these living organisms. They also contribute to misconceptions about the environment, which poses challenges for Environmental Education and the appreciation of biodiversity conservation. Given this, the proposed action aims to create an investigative space that allows students to engage with the construction of scientific knowledge through virtual reality.
