ROSA, Marcelo D'Aquino y MOHR, Adriana. SCIENCE TEXTBOOKS SELECTION AND USE: RESEARCH ON FLORIANÓPOLIS' MUNICIPAL PUBLIC SCHOOLS. Ens. Pesqui. Educ. Ciênc. [online]. 2016, vol.18, n.3, pp.97-115. ISSN 1983-2117. https://doi.org/10.1590/1983-21172016180305.
In this article we describe an investigation of some aspects related to the selection and use of science textbooks by school teachers in the municipality of Florianópolis, Santa Catarina, Brazil. We investigated the academic background and the teachers' beliefs about science textbooks, through semi-structured interviews with eight science teachers. This research is classified as a qualitative one and our results show that the science teachers are the ones responsible for the textbooks selection in the municipal schools in Florianópolis, and their choices are based upon the Directives of the Secretary of Education of the municipality and their school's pedagogic project. They agree that the whole process is satisfactory.
