Avaliação do uso de filme como instrumento de ensino aprendizagem na educação básica

Abstract

The present work sought to observe, based on the students' reports, the screening of the film “A Bug's Life”, as a complementary activity, in a 7th year class at a public school in the urban region of Santarém/Pará. The film was applied after a class on the insect phylum, where topics such as the main orders, morphology and ecological responses were covered. The students watched the film and then reported a brief discussion about the interesting scenes in the film, we can verify the associations obtained in a complementary way to the content covered in the formal class. The data obtained in an interview with students, previously requested by their guardians, showed that students say they have a high level of ease and preference for this methodology, this indicates that audiovisual is a promising tool in the educational context, many students want to report on metamorphosis, ecological relationships, however the reduction in the workload for Natural Sciences in basic school, not providing us with adequate viewing time, divided into two parts, was not suitable for a better continuity of the observations made by the students. We conclude from this experience that the use of films in teaching has its advantages as it is a visual and sound content that captures students' attention, but it has its improvements in relation to the short class time, precarious infrastructure conditions and technological resources present in public schools.
