Resumo: Gender has been one of the most debated topics when talking about Brazilian education in recent years. In this paper, we discuss gender relations in the context of the disciplinary field of natural sciences. Science Education research has been dedicated to the analysis of gender relations in recent decades. Despite advances in the field, there are few studies that relate scientific concepts’ learning and gender in classroom daily life. In the present study, we explored discursive interactions in an elementary school classroom in order to analyze how gender interweaves learning opportunities in science lessons. For this, we rely on Butler’s theoretical proposals on gender, and guide the analyzes from Ethnography in Education as a logic of research. The results indicate that conceptual knowledge of science was being constructed by the students through the reiteration/challenge of the gender norm over daily life science class. Such negotiations played a central role in learning about sexual dimorphism. The study joins other research that defend the relevance of discussions about gender in education, including school science and its concepts.

En este artículo discutimos las relaciones de género en el contexto del campo disciplinar de las Ciencias Naturales. Investigadores se han dedicado cada vez más al análisis de las relaciones de género en clases de ciencias. A pesar de los avances en el campo, aún existen pocos estudios que relacionen el género con el aprendizaje de conceptos científicos en el cotidiano del aula. En el presente estudio, exploramos las interacciones discursivas en una clase de 1° año de Educación Primaria con el objetivo de analizar el papel del género en la construcción de oportunidades de aprendizaje de las ciencias. Para ello, nos apoyamos en propuestas teóricas de Butler sobre género, y orientamos el análisis desde la Etnografía en Educación como lógica de investigación. Las clases analizadas indican que el conocimiento conceptual de la ciencia estuvo vinculado a procesos de reiteración/desafío de la norma de género. Tales negociaciones jugaron un papel central en el aprendizaje sobre el dimorfismo sexual. El estudio se suma a otras investigaciones que apuntan a la relevancia de las discusiones sobre género en la educación, incluyendo la ciencia escolar y sus conceptos.A temática do gênero assumiu um lugar central nas discussões no campo da educação. Neste artigo, discutimos relações de gênero no contexto específico do campo da Educação em Ciências da Natureza, uma área que tem se dedicado, de modo crescente, ao estudo de relações de gênero. Apesar de avanços no campo, ainda são escassos os estudos que relacionam gênero à aprendizagem de conceitos científicos no cotidiano da sala de aula. No presente estudo, exploramos interações discursivas em uma turma do 1° ano Ensino Fundamental com o objetivo de analisar o papel do gênero na construção de oportunidades de aprendizagem de ciências. Para isso, nos apoiamos em propostas teóricas de Butler sobre gênero, e orientamos as análises a partir da Etnografia em Educação como lógica de pesquisa. As aulas analisadas indicam que conhecimentos conceituais de ciências estavam articulados a processos de reiteração/contestação da norma de gênero. Tais negociações exerceram um papel central na aprendizagem sobre a biologia de um inseto, em particular, sobre dimorfismo sexual. O estudo se une a outras pesquisas que apontam a relevância das discussões sobre gênero na educação, incluindo a disciplina escolar Ciências e seus conceitos.SciELO PreprintsSciELO PreprintsSciELO Preprints2022-04-14info:eu-repo/semantics/preprintinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/preprint/view/392310.1590/SciELOPreprints.3923porhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/article/view/3923/7327Copyright (c) 2022 Luiz Gustavo Franco, Danusa Munfordhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessFranco, Luiz GustavoMunford, Danusareponame:SciELO Preprintsinstname:SciELOinstacron:SCI2022-04-11T18:05:49Zoai:ops.preprints.scielo.org:preprint/3923Servidor de preprintshttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scieloONGhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/oaiscielo.submission@scielo.orgopendoar:2022-04-11T18:05:49SciELO Preprints - SciELOfalse
