PEDAGOGICAL SEQUENCE WITH ACTIVE METHODOLOGIES AND TECHNOLOGIES FOR TEACHING MODELING

Abstract

The global scenario is constantly undergoing social and technological transformations, impacting education as well. A more meaningful teaching process is presented for the youth, allowing them to associate their education with their reality, context, and life project. In light of this, there is a recognized need to place the youth at the center and as protagonists of their education. Active methodology contributes to achieving this goal, where the student is an active, critical, and reflective subject, developing essential skills for their life project. Additionally, coupled with the use of technologies, it enhances their digital literacy. With this aim, the objective of this study is to design and implement a pedagogical sequence using active methodologies and technological resources. This study is an experiential report applied to a second-year class of the new High School in a state school in Santa Catarina, comprising 18 students. Furthermore, the pedagogical sequence was developed in the format of a scientific research on socio-economic and demographic indicators. During its implementation, students felt challenged being in a central position; however, this allowed them to employ scientific, critical, and creative thinking, expanding their understanding of technology use. In conclusion, it was understood that students acted more autonomously, exploring competencies and basic skills for their education. Nevertheless, it is emphasized that continuous work is necessary to achieve the complete protagonism of students in the teaching process.
