Descripción
O objetivo principal deste trabalho foi mediar, para um grupo de alunos de 8o e 9o ano de uma escola pública da cidade de Realeza/PR, uma oficina didática na área de Astronomia em preparação para a Olimpíada Brasileira de Astronomia (OBA). Procurou-se por meio dessa mediação, trabalhar em conjunto com os alunos os conceitos de lixo espacial, telescópios, foguetes, fases da Lua, rotação, translação, revolução, satélites. Para isso, foram utilizadas atividades experimentais, vídeos, imagens e discussões como recursos metodológicos facilitadores do processo de aprendizagem. Também, foram aplicados um pré e um pós-teste com perguntas descritivas sobre os conceitos. As discussões e considerações foram embasadas nas percepções das autorasdurante a oficina e nas respostas dos testes aplicados. Observou-se que o processo de aprendizagem foi facilitado porque os alunos relacionaram novas informações com conceitos já assimilados antes, atribuindo e/ou modificando significados, conhecimentos estes que podem servir como precursores de outros trabalhos na área. Justifica-se assim, a importância da utilização de oficinas didáticas no ensino de Astronomia para promover a assimilação conceitual nos alunos dos anos finais do ensino fundamental.
The main objective of this work was to mediate, to 8th and 9th grade of public school from Realeza /PR, didactic workshops in the Astronomy area, as a preparation for the Brazilian Astronomy Olympiad (BAO). It was tried, by this mediation, to work with the students, concepts of space debris, telescopes, rockets, moon phases, rotation, translation, revolution and satellites. For this, were used experimental activities, videos, images and discussions as facilitators to methodological resources of the learning process. Also, it was applied a test before and after the work, with descriptive questions about the concepts. Discussions and considerations were based on the authors’ perceptions during the workshop, and on responses of applied tests. It was observed that learning process was facilitated, because students could relate new information with concepts already assimilated before, assigning and/or modifying meanings, which will serve as precursors to other work in the area. So, this justified the importance of using didactic workshops on astronomy education to promote conceptual assimilation on students at the final grades of elementary school.
