Active methodologies in the science classroom: a report on the Interdisciplinary Pedagogical Residency in Biology

Abstract

Traditional teaching methodologies and their use are being questioned, especially by people who are increasingly connected and technological. In this direction, active learning methodologies are gaining strength as they are considered a complementary tool to teaching and learning processes. This experience report seeks to reflect on three games used in a state school in the city of Jequié-BA. Online quizzes, memory games and booklets on science subjects were used as elements of Active Learning Methodologies. To this end, a systematic literature review was carried out in search of other experience reports, as a way of presenting the main contributions of the method to the teaching and learning process, seeking to assist in the preparation of Science classes in the context of the Interdisciplinary Biology Center of the Pedagogical Residency. In terms of the methodologies used, we obtained the following results: the practical activities were successfully completed, and it is notable that the active methodologies proved to be innovative. After all, they place the students as the main agents of their learning, making it feasible for there to be stimuli that are encouraged by the teacher, providing the student with more participatory learning.
