Resumo: | Pointed as an innovative didactic resource for Biology Teaching, Bioinformatics enables the interpretation of genomic and proteomic data with the aid of computing. This resource, as a didactic tool, is little widespread in Brazilian Basic Education when compared to the most developed countries. To understand the panorama about the use of Bioinformatics as a methodological resource in Biology Teaching, we carried out an exploratory research through data collection. The survey consisted of the application of a questionnaire for graduated (N=59) and undergraduates (N=17) of Biological Sciences. The answers were analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively through Thematic Analysis. It was found that 56% of respondents defined Bioinformatics satisfactorily; which was correlated with the year of training of teachers. The potential of Bioinformatics in Basic Education was associated, from the perspective of teachers, with the possibility of contextualizing abstract themes to digital native students, the dissemination of the area and the possibility of interdisciplinarity. Regarding the limitations regarding its use, the lack of experience/knowledge of the professors, the curricular plastering and the lack of infrastructure were pointed out. The results indicate that, despite recognizing the potential of Bioinformatics as a didactic resource, teachers do not have adequate training for its use, and it is necessary to offer them training for this type of tool, which would demand a closer relationship between the university and Basic Education. |

Esse recurso, enquanto ferramenta didática, é pouco difundido no Ensino Básico brasileiro quando comparado aos países mais desenvolvidos. Para compreender o panorama acerca do emprego da Bioinformática enquanto um recurso metodológico no Ensino de Biologia, realizamos uma pesquisa exploratória através do levantamento de dados. O survey consistiu na aplicação de um questionário para licenciados (N=59) e licenciandos (N=17) de Ciências Biológicas. As respostas foram analisadas de forma quantitativa e qualitativa, por meio da Análise Temática. Verificou-se que 56% dos respondentes definiram a Bioinformática satisfatoriamente; o que se correlacionou com o ano de formação dos docentes. A potencialidade da Bioinformática no Ensino Básico associou-se, na perspectiva dos docentes, à possibilidade de contextualização de temas abstratos aos estudantes nativos digitais, à divulgação da área e à possibilidade de interdisciplinaridade. Com relação às limitações quanto ao seu uso, foram apontados a falta de experiência/conhecimento dos docentes, o engessamento curricular e a carência de infraestrutura. Os resultados indicam que, apesar de reconhecerem as potencialidades da Bioinformática enquanto recurso didático, os professores não apresentam a formação adequada para a sua utilização, sendo necessária a oferta de treinamentos para este tipo de ferramenta, o que demandaria uma maior aproximação entre a universidade e a Educação Básica.Universidade Tecnológica Federal do Paraná (UTFPR)Colégio Pedro IIde Oliveira Moraes, IsabelleFernandes Tavares Cezar-de-Mello, Paula2021-08-24info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.utfpr.edu.br/rbect/article/view/1393310.3895/rbect.v14n2.13933Revista Brasileira de Ensino de Ciência e Tecnologia; v. 14, n. 2 (2021)1982-873X10.3895/rbect.v14n2reponame:Revista Brasileira de Ensino de Ciência e Tecnologiainstname:Universidade Tecnológica Federal do Paraná (UTFPR)instacron:UTFPRporenghttps://periodicos.utfpr.edu.br/rbect/article/view/13933/pdfhttps://periodicos.utfpr.edu.br/rbect/article/view/13933/pdf_1https://periodicos.utfpr.edu.br/rbect/article/downloadSuppFile/13933/2153https://periodicos.utfpr.edu.br/rbect/article/downloadSuppFile/13933/2154Direitos autorais 2021 CC-BYhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2022-09-29T18:41:11Zoai:periodicos.utfpr:article/13933Revistahttps://periodicos.utfpr.edu.br/rbectPUBhttps://periodicos.utfpr.edu.br/rbect/oai||rbect-pg@utfpr.edu.br1982-873X1982-873Xopendoar:2022-09-29T18:41:11Revista Brasileira de Ensino de Ciência e Tecnologia - Universidade Tecnológica Federal do Paraná (UTFPR)false |
