Resumo

Os planeadores curriculares afirmam que a Abordagem Ciência-Tecnologia-Sociedade (CTS) no ensino de Ciências é uma prática pedagógica que conduz ao desenvolvimento da literacia científica dos alunos - o objectivo global da educação científica.  Este estudo avaliou o tratamento de temas CTS no currículo de ciências do Ensino Médio (JHS), refletido em livros didáticos e praticado por professores de ciências.  Doze livros didáticos (de duas editoras comerciais e do State Textbook Bureau) foram analisados ​​quanto ao tratamento de 12 temas CTS.  Os principais conceitos, termos e ilustrações relacionados ao CTS foram as unidades de análise.  Enquanto isso, o tratamento dos professores foi avaliado por meio de avaliação própria e dos alunos.   Os resultados mostraram que, no seu conjunto, os temas CTS enfatizados nos livros didáticos e pelos professores de ciências eram consistentes.  Os dois temas CTS mais enfatizados são “Saúde e Doenças Humanas” e “Qualidade do Ar e Atmosfera”.  Por outro lado, “Reatores Nucleares” e “Tecnologia de Guerra” são os temas menos abordados.  Houve um tratamento diferenciado dos temas CTS nos três livros didáticos em relação aos principais conceitos, palavras-chave e ilustrações relacionados a CTS.  O mesmo tratamento diferenciado foi observado nos quatro níveis de escolaridade.   Os implementadores curriculares (ou seja, os professores de ciências) recomendaram tratamentos adequados dos temas CTS.  Por fim, foi desenvolvido um modelo que retrata o tratamento diferenciado dos temas CTS no currículo do ensino fundamental.
