Resumo: Epistemology of biology has been the subject of many discussions in the field of Science and Biology education. This study aimed to bring new elaborations to enrich these discussions, highlighting its importance and how this epistemology canbe inserted in Science and Biology education. The presented investigation is anchored on three main pillars:(i) some reflections on epistemologyof biology; (ii)the importance and vagueness of the concept of biological/ecological interaction in literature; (iii) the empirical investigation on epistemologyof biology by this research group. The semiotic analysis allowed us to infer that the research subjects: expressed to understand the importance, amplitude and centrality of this concept to the Biology Knowledge; evolved from a starting vision in which it was only understood the biological interactions with the external environment to one in which we start to understand the biological interactions in several levels of organization thus, advancing from a syncretic/abductive thinking to a deductive reasoning, going through the inductive one; and are concerned on how to teach the studied concept to their future students. This analysisallowed some reflections that can contribute to a creation of a solid epistemology of biology in its many contexts, with the main focus on initial teacher training.

En este contexto, el objetivo de este trabajo fue contribuir para traer nuevas elaboraciones que enriquezcan estas discusiones, evidenciando la importancia y el cómo esta epistemología puede ser insertada en la enseñanza de ciencias y biología. Así, la presente investigación está basada en tres segmentos: (i) algunas reflexiones acerca de la epistemología de la biología; (ii) importancia e indefiniciones del concepto de interacción biológica/ecológica en la literatura; (iii) investigación empírica junto a un grupo de investigaciones acerca del concepto señalado. Los análisis semióticos obtenidos posibilitaron inferir que los sujetos de esta investigación relataron comprender la importancia, amplitud y centralidad de este concepto para el conocimiento biológico; evolucionaron de una visión inicial en que comprendían las interacciones biológicas restrictas al ambiente externo del organismo, para una visión en que pasaron a comprender las interacciones biológicas en varios niveles de la organización de los seres vivos, avanzando del pensamiento sincrético/abductivo para el deductivo, pasando por el inductivo; se preocuparon en cómo enseñar el concepto estudiado a sus futuros estudiantes. Tales análisis posibilitaron algunas reflexiones que pueden contribuir para la constitución de una epistemología de la biología sólida en sus diversos contextos, teniendo como enfoque la formación inicial. . A epistemologia da biologia tem sido objeto de várias discussões no campo da pesquisa em ensino de ciências e biologia. Nesse contexto, o objetivo desse trabalho foi contribuir para trazer novas elaborações que enriqueçam essas discussões, evidenciando a importância e como essa epistemologia pode ser inserida no ensino de ciências e biologia. Assim, a presente investigação está ancorada em três pilares: (i)algumas reflexões acerca da epistemologia da biologia; (ii) importância e indefinições do conceito de interação biológica/ecológica na literatura; (iii) investigação empírica junto a um grupo de pesquisas acerca do referido conceito. As análises semióticas obtidas possibilitaram inferir que os sujeitos dessa pesquisaexpressaram compreender a importância, a amplitude e a centralidade desse conceito para o conhecimento biológico; evoluíram de uma visão inicial em que compreendiam as interações biológicas restritas ao ambiente externo do organismo, para uma visão em que passaram a compreender as interações biológicas em vários níveis de organização dos seres vivos, avançando do pensamento sincrético/abdutivo para o dedutivo, passando pelo indutivo; preocuparam-se em como ensinar o conceito estudado aos seus futuros estudantes. Tais análises possibilitaram algumas reflexões que podem contribuir para a constituição de uma epistemologia da biologia sólida em seus diversos contextos, tendo como foco a formação inicial.    . Universidade Estadual de Maringá2017-09-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.uem.br/ojs/index.php/ActaSciEduc/article/view/2839310.4025/actascieduc.v39i4.28393Acta Scientiarum.
