PIBID – Química/UFAL: Relatório de experiência sob o olhar do aluno do ensino médio

Abstract

Nowadays the teaching of chemistry is necessary for the understanding of the phenomena that occur in our daily life. However the challenge, is to arouse students' interest in a discipline that is considered rather abstract. The Programa Institucional de Bolsas de Iniciação à Docência (PIBID) aims to break the barriers of chemistry teaching, introducing the undergraduate academic to the realities of the public school, in order to identify, live with the challenges and learn how to behave face to which are very present in the daily life of the Brazilian public school. The idea of the program is to lead students to put into practice everything that is been in theory, discovering their teaching methods and methodologies, and breaking the existing barriers between students and teachers and seeking techniques to improve teaching - learning in schools public projects, whether by bringing experiments, play games, differentiated activities, educational projects and that can make the student aware of establishing a concrete contextualization of the subject to be studied, ending with the idea of being an abstract discipline and thus making the content taught more attractive and interesting in the vision of the high school student. This work aims to observe and to understand the importance of PIBID, for those who are most benefited by the program, the students. This activity is based on an interview with students through questionnaires and discussions in order to understand the importance of the program, how they see the program, what they believe, what can be improved, what can still be done, what they would like to see and experience, what they have learned over the periods they have lived with the program's academics. This work was carried out in classes of the second year of high school, of the State School Professor Afrânio Lajes located in the neighborhood of Farol, in the city of Maceió in the state of Alagoas. The development of the program's activities at the school has achieved a satisfactory result, by including pedagogical resources such as games, experiments and workshops in the daily classroom, helping to understand the content, making classes more attractive and reducing the distance between teacher and the student.
