Resumo: Science teaching naturally awakens interest in children, as it promotes curiosity, questioning and the search for experimentation based on events related to their daily lives. This article aims to investigate the previous conceptions of elementary school students about pollination and the importance of bees in order to stimulate interest in nature preservation, and enable a possible change and/or expansion of previous knowledge about thematic. The research has a qualitative approach, typified as a case study, developed with 89 students. A semi-structured questionnaire was applied as a collection instrument and the results were analyzed based on Bardin’s content analysis. The results indicate the importance of knowing the students’ previous conceptions in order to understand the values indicated by the research subjects regarding the environment. They also demonstrate that participants presented fragmented prior conceptions regarding the pollination process and a reductionist view of the importance of bees. Therefore, it is up to the teacher to use teaching methodologies to promote learning in which the student has contact with nature, enabling a comprehensive understanding of these concepts and an appreciation and understanding of terms and concepts about pollination and the importance of bees. It is noteworthy that even knowing some concepts and terms, there is a need to investigate the depth of this knowledge and its interrelationships for the construction of knowledge.

El objetivo de este artículo es investigar las ideas preconcebidas de los alumnos de primaria sobre la polinización y la importancia de las abejas con el fin de estimular el interés por la preservación de la naturaleza, y posibilitar un posible cambio y/o ampliación de conocimientos previos sobre las temáticas. La investigación es cualitativa, tipificada como estudio de caso, y se realizó con 89 alumnos. Como instrumento de recogida se utilizó un cuestionario semiestructurado y los resultados se analizaron mediante el análisis de contenido de Bardin. Los resultados indican la importancia de conocer las concepciones previas de los alumnos para comprender los valores atribuidos por los sujetos de la investigación al medio ambiente. También muestran que los participantes tenían preconcepciones fragmentadas del proceso de polinización y una visión reduccionista de la importancia de las abejas. Corresponde, por lo tanto, al profesor utilizar metodologías de enseñanza que promuevan un aprendizaje en el que el alumno tenga contacto con la naturaleza, posibilitando la ampliación de sus concepciones y la apreciación y comprensión de términos y conceptos sobre la polinización y la importancia de las abejas. Es de destacar que aún conociendo algunos conceptos y términos, surge la necesidad de investigar la profundidad de estos conocimientos y sus interrelaciones para la construcción del conocimiento.O ensino de ciências desperta de maneira natural o interesse nas crianças, pois promove a curiosidade, o questionamento e busca pela experimentação a partir dos acontecimentos relacionados ao seu cotidiano. O presente artigo tem como objetivo investigar as concepções prévias de alunos de anos iniciais do Ensino Fundamental sobre polinização e a importância das abelhas a fim de estimular o interesse pela preservação da natureza, e possibilitar uma possível de mudança e/ou ampliação dos conhecimentos prévios sobre a temática. A pesquisa é de abordagem qualitativa, tipificada como estudo de caso, desenvolvida com 89 estudantes. Como instrumento de coleta foi aplicado um questionário semiestruturado e a análise dos resultados se deu a partir da análise de conteúdo de Bardin. Os resultados sinalizam a importância de conhecer as concepções prévias dos alunos para a compreensão dos valores atribuídos pelos sujeitos da pesquisa ao meio ambiente. Também demonstram que os participantes apresentaram concepções prévias fragmentadas referentes ao processo de polinização e, uma visão reducionista acerca da importância das abelhas. Assim, compete ao professor utilizar-se de metodologias de ensino para promover uma aprendizagem na qual o aluno tenha contato com a natureza, possibilitado abrangência em relação as concepções desses e uma valorização e entendimento de termos e conceitos sobre a polinização e a importância das abelhas. Destaca-se, que mesmo conhecendo alguns conceitos e termos, há necessidade de investigar a profundidade desse conhecimento e suas interrelações para construção de saberes.Centro de Investigação Didática e Tecnologia na Formação de Formadores (CIDTFF) / Universidade de Aveiro2023-12-28info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.34624/id.v15i4.33883https://doi.org/10.34624/id.v15i4.33883Indagatio Didactica; Vol 15 No 4 (2023); 13-34Indagatio Didactica; Vol. 15 Núm. 4 (2023); 13-34Indagatio Didactica; Vol. 15 No 4 (2023); 13-34Indagatio Didactica; vol. 15 n.º 4 (2023); 13-341647-3582reponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPporhttps://proa.ua.pt/index.php/id/article/view/33883https://proa.ua.pt/index.php/id/article/view/33883/23209Direitos de Autor (c) 2024 Maira dos Santos Silveira, Andréa Inês Goldschmidt, Luciana Richterhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSilveira, Maira dos SantosGoldschmidt, Andréa InêsRichter, Luciana2024-02-01T11:38:03Zoai:proa.ua.pt:article/33883Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T01:59:25.829484Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
