O Ensino de Microbiologia nas escolas como forma de prevenção de doenças infecciosas: uma análise crítica do currículo paulista
Abstract
Microbiology is the science devoted to the study of microscopic organisms, such as
bacteria, fungi, protozoa and viruses, and their biological activities. As
development of microbiology it was discovered that microorganisms are
related to the cause of infectious diseases and, as a form of prevention, there was a need to improve basic sanitation and hygiene conditions. Still
Today, infectious diseases are a public health problem in Brazil and
It is extremely important to reinforce prevention measures, based on policies
public. Thus, schools play a key role in promoting
hygiene education and other disease prevention measures. the teaching of
microbiology is already present in basic education in the disciplines of Science and
biology, and can be further explored with the specific objective of preventing
infectious diseases. However, so that the teaching of microbiology does not become
abstract for the students, it is necessary that the teaching-learning process be
significant. Thus, this work aimed to carry out an analysis
critique of microbiology skills, with an emphasis on teaching diseases
infectious diseases, present in the Paulista Curriculum and in the support materials, “Curriculum in
Action”, made available by the State of São Paulo to students and teachers
of the public network. In addition, a bibliographic survey of
alternative methodologies for teaching microbiology in basic education, with the
objective of proposing didactic activities to facilitate and improve the quality of the
teaching-learning process, making the teaching of microbiology a
effective way to promote the prevention and knowledge of infectious diseases.
