Produção de vídeos na plataforma do Youtube como estratégia para aprendizagem colaborativa sobre os elementos químicos

Abstract

In this paper, a study was carried out to develop an educational product, a method of teaching chemistry, on the content "Chemical Elements", taking into consideration the difficulties in teaching chemical elements, from methodologies that no longer contemplate the students’demands for dynamic and interactive learning. The product consists of activities report that used Information and Communication Technologies, associated with the Collaborative Learning methodology, in a social interactionist context. The approach was developed using a qualitative research, having as participants, students of a high school class of a public school in the state of Ceará. The pedagogical intervention was performed in three stages. The first was intended to suggest the creation of a channel of videos produced by the students themselves, with the theme “chemical elements and their applicability”, followed by a previous survey on learning perspectives and the possibilities of using ICTs. This stage included a moment of awareness, with the exhibition of some analogous materials already existing on the internet. The second stage was aimed to the production, correction and editing of materials already produced by the students. Finally, the last moment was focused on socialization, knowledge and experiences sharing. With the experience of observation and monitoring were analyzed sufficient elements to develop an effective and meaningful educational product intended for chemistry teachers to plan similar activities.
