Interdisciplinaridade e literacia científica: uma proposta de prática integradoras em um curso de análises clínicas na rede estadual de educação profissional da Bahia

Abstract

This investigation comprises the development of an educational product which aims to apply the Integrative Professional Practice (IPP), directed to the Clinical Analysis Technical Course, considering for that purpose, the perspective of interdisciplinarity and scientific literacy. The educational product, a didactic sequence, by theme, science in favor of the diagnosis/prevention and treatment of diseases, aims to integrate the basic subjects offered to the professional specific ones grounded by literacy when we look forward a teaching of science which responds appropriately to the many everyday issues and challenges that come from our actions and behavior, in which students can face them correctly. It is an educational proposal structured within the three pedagogical moments (TPM) inspired by Paulo Freire Pedagogy. In order to analyze its applicability in educational institutions, the validation process was used to verify the applicability according to the teaching objectives established to this educational proposal. The data collected through the application of the validation questionnaire were analyzed using a mixed methodology and from that procedure their suitability and applicability were evidenced and validated. The analysis and comments by experts show that the didactic sequence contains parameters of interdisciplinarity and scientific literacy, it is diverse in its resources and evaluation, constituting an alternative methodology to the standard disciplinary approach (included in curricula) whose objective is to overcome the fragmentation of science and knowledge achieved by it and in addition to that it contributes to the students / citizens learning process allowing them to solve issues that affect peoples’ lives, such as health, well-being, prophylaxis, disease diagnosis, among others, thus, our objectives were achieved. However, despite the validation results obtained, we highlight the need to continue this project as well as its execution in a practical context in order to know its challenges, limits, potential and possible necessary adjustments.
