Resumen
VASCONCELOS, Simão Dias y SOUTO, Emanuel. O livro didático de ciências no ensino fundamental - proposta de critérios para análise do conteúdo zoológico. Ciência educ. [online]. 2003, vol.09, n.01, pp.93-104. ISSN 1516-7313.
The growing discussion about the quality of Science textbooks has clearly altered the editorial market in the past few years in Brazil. Despite remarkable improvement, a considerable amount of teachers has not yet had access to means for analyzing Science textbooks. In this context, we propose a series of criteria to be used by the teacher when electing the textbook used at junior high schools, using as a model the zoological content. The following topics were considered: theoretical contents, visual information, practical activities and complementary information. Through this study, we intend to contribute to the debate about the necessity of a stronger involvement of teachers in the process of book choice.
