Estimulando o aprendizado sobre as infecções sexualmente transmissíveis no ensino médio por meio da abordagem dos três momentos pedagógicos

Abstract

The school is one of the main environments in which learning about Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs), contraceptives and other topics related to sexuality can be favored. Considering the high rates of occurrence of STIs observed among young people and adolescents in Brazil today, this topic should be discussed very carefully. In this way, teachers need to create teaching strategies that facilitate and stimulate student learning, enabling reflections on these issues, focusing on students' experiences. The methodology of the Three Pedagogical Moments (3PMs) is based on the perspective of the thematic approach and can be a useful teaching tool to explore the contents of STIs with high school students. In this teaching strategy, scientific knowledge is addressed through the discussion of situations that are significant for the students. The present work is characterized as a descriptive qualitative research, in which it was investigated how a didactic sequence on the teaching of STIs appropriates the perspectives and educational strategies of the methodology of the Three Pedagogical Moments (3PMs), contributing to the learning of high school students. Videos, dynamics and simulations of STI cases were used in the didactic sequence to provoke discussions. The development of the didactic sequence provided the active participation of the students in their learning, valued their previous conceptions and stimulated the development of contents and concepts that had not yet been consolidated. The product of this Master's Conclusion Work is a didactic sequence to be published in digital media and made available to other teachers.
