Unidade Didática: como a educação sexual deve ser feita nas escolas? 2024. 14 f. Recurso Educacional Aberto (Graduação) - Licenciatura em Ciências Biológicas, Departamento de Microbiologia e Parasitologia, Centro de Biociências, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, 2024.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/handle/123456789/61195The object of sex education is human sexuality. It is a cross-cutting theme, essential for the all-round development of students, encompassing biological, social and ethical aspects. Although the National Common Curriculum Base (NCCB) does not identify it as compulsory in schools, Brazilian legislation and documents such as the National Curriculum Parameters (NCP) offer support for its approach. However, it faces ideological resistance, a lack of adequate teacher training and moral panic. Therefore, this paper proposes a Didactic Unit based on Socio-Scientific Issues (SSI), which provides didactic support for science and biology teachers, and aims to encourage critical and interdisciplinary debate on the subject by discussing with students how sex education should be carried out in schools, contributing to the formation of critical and responsible citizens. The proposal was drawn up in the context of the subject Teaching Science and Biology III in the context of the Undergraduate Degree in Biological Sciences at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte (FURN).Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/br/SexualidadeQuestões sociocientíficasEnsino de ciênciasFormação docenteopenEducationalResourceCNPQ::CIENCIAS BIOLOGICAS::BIOLOGIA GERAL
