Perfil acadêmico dos professores de ciências naturais da cidade de Parintins- AM

Abstract

This work presents an investigation developed during the conclusion of a course in Biological Sciences of the University of the State of Amazonas-UEA, with the objective of making a diagnosis about the academic profile of the professor of Natural Sciences in the city of Parintins-AM, in a way to analyze the aspects that contribute to the teaching of sciences, to verify the forms of teaching and to characterize the teaching practice in relation to the teaching and learning of the students. The research was done through an interview with a form in 6 schools of the urban network with teachers who work in the grades 6 to 9 of elementary school. The analysis of the data revealed that there are teachers from other areas teaching natural sciences and they find it difficult to administer the discipline, since it is not part of their initial training area. We also highlight the lack of updated teaching materials to aid in teaching, which leads us to reflect on education in the municipality.
