LIMA, Kênio Erithon Cavalcante. Problematization as Strategy for Discussing Bioethics and Biosafety Applied to Zoology Teaching: an Experience among Biological Science Students. Ens. Pesqui. Educ. Ciênc. [online]. 2011, vol.13, n.3, pp.81-97. ISSN 1983-2117. https://doi.org/10.1590/1983-2117201113381.
Concern about animal welfare instigates attitude changes in teaching and research activities involving animals. This has led to the development of alternative didactic resources aimed to reduce animal suffering. This work investigated conceptions from Biological Sciences students related to Bioethics and Biosafety applied to animal manipulation at UFPE. We observed that most students ignore aspects of sentience and animal welfare and also risks to human health when dealing with animals. There is a shortage of formal situations (courses) and extracurricular activities that stimulate perceptions about Bioethics and Biosafety in Biology teaching.
