Resumo: This work presents the application of a computer simulation model to minimize the teachers, difficulties in showing the natural actions that occur in the food chain that hinder the teaching and learning process. The use of computer simulation models in the teaching of Ecology for elementary education proves to be an innovative tool, promoting the approximation between students and their object of knowledge. The objective was to create a teaching strategy using virtual scenarios in order to stimulate the ability to build concepts of the food chain theme. To describe the dynamics of biological systems, a computer simulation program was developed based on the prey-predador model of Lotka-Volterra. Data collection was performed qualitatively through the analysis of responses from experiments and virtual situations. The pedagogical approach is developed based on Jean Piaget’s constructivism. From this point of view, the simulation model presents itself as an instrument to support the teaching of Ecology, helping in the leaming of new concepts. The place of study was a municipal elementary school, with 6th grade students, in the city of Manaus/Am. Based on the results obtained, it was noticed that the simulation contributes to the construction of knowledge and provides a good support for learnig.

El uso de modelos de simulación por computadora em la enseñanza de la Ecología para la educación primaria demuestra ser una herramienta innovadora, favoreciendo la aproximación entre los estudiantes e su objeto de conocimiento. El objetivo fue crear una estrategia didáctica utilizando escenarios virtuales com el fin de estimular la capacidad de construcción de conceptos del tema cadena alimentaria. Para describir la dinâmica de los sistemas biológicos, se desarrolló un programa de simulación por computadora basado em el modelo presa-depredador de Lotka-Volterra. La recolección de datos se realizó cualitativamente a través del análisis de respuestas de experimentos y situaciones virtuales. El enfoque pedagógico se desarrolla a partir del constructivismo de Jean Piaget. Desde este punto de vista, el modelo de simulación se presenta como un instrumento de apoyo a la enseñanza de la Ecologia, ayudando em el aprendizaje de nuevos conceptos. El lugar de estudio fue una escuela primaria municipal, con alunos de 6º grado, en la ciudad de Manaus/Am. Con base en los resultados obtenidos, se percibió que la simulación contribuye a la construcción del conocimiento y proporciona un buen soporte para el aprendizaje.Este trabalho apresenta a aplicação de um modelo de simulação computacional para minimizar as dificuldades dos professores em mostrar as ações naturais que ocorrem na cadeia alimentar que dificultam o processo de ensino e aprendizagem. O uso de modelos de simulações computacionais no ensino de Ecologia para o ensino fundamental mostra-se uma ferramenta inovadora, promovendo a aproximação entre alunos e seu objeto de conhecimento. O objetivo foi criar uma estratégia de ensino utilizando cenários virtuais com o intuito de estimular a habilidade para construção de conceitos da temática cadeia alimentar. Para descrever a dinâmica dos sistemas biológicos desenvolveu-se um programa de simulação computacional com base no modelo presa-predador de Lotka-Volterra. A coleta de dados foi realizada qualitativamente mediante a análise das respostas de experimentos e situações virtuais. A abordagem pedagógica é desenvolvida com base no construtivismo de Jean Piaget. Sob esta ótica, o modelo de simulação se apresenta como um instrumento de apoio ao ensino de Ecologia, auxiliando na aprendizagem de novos conceitos. O local de estudo foi uma escola municipal de Ensino Fundamental, com alunos do 6º ano, da cidade de Manaus/AM. Com base nos resultados obtidos, percebeu-se que a simulação contribui para a construção do conhecimento e fornece um bom suporte para o aprendizado.Research, Society and Development2022-09-29info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/3519410.33448/rsd-v11i13.35194Research, Society and Development; Vol. 11 No. 13; e103111335194Research, Society and Development; Vol. 11 Núm. 13; e103111335194Research, Society and Development; v. 11 n. 13; e1031113351942525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/35194/29511Copyright (c) 2022 Mônica Martins da Silva; José Luiz de Souza Piohttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSilva, Mônica Martins daPio, José Luiz de Souza 2022-10-17T13:43:46Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/35194Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:50:11.414607Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false
