Produção de uma coleção didática 3D no CIEP E-Tec 480 para o ensino de Biologia

Abstract

3D printing holds a diverse pedagogical potential,and has been utilized as a tool in many educational projects, setting the student as the central piece of the teach learning process. From 3D printing, it's possible to materialize specific modeled structures, in different materials and sizes. In teaching, it's able to solve the absence of several high cost didactic materials, that can be printed in a more accessible way. The present project objective is to create the first 3D pedagogical object collection directed towards the teaching of biology at the state school CIEP E-TEC 480 - Luís Carlos Veronese in the municipality of Nova Friburgo - RJ, exploring the pedagogical potential of 3D technologies, enabling high school students to use the school’s 3D maker infrastructure and encouraging the use of 3D technologies by students in Biology projects with interdisciplinary possibilities. During the present study, students participated in workshops to learn how to use 3D printing technology, using the curriculum contents learned in biology classes. The actions developed in this research enabled the training of students to use the school’s maker structure, with the production of the first 3D didactic collection for biology teaching, promoting an investigative teaching for the students involved, making them protagonists of their learning.
