CAMAS, Nuria Pons Vilardell; LAMBACH, Marcelo e SOUZA, Fernando Roberto Amorim. Interdisciplinarity and Scientific Literacy: an essay about two sides of the same coin. Ensino em Re-Vista [online]. 2021, vol.28, e017. Epub 29-Jun-2023. ISSN 1983-1730. https://doi.org/10.14393/er-v28a2021-17.
The present work seeks to find elements in the theoretical foundations to spur a dialogue on interdisciplinarity and scientific alphabetization. It is based on the assumption that when teaching is fragmented in a curriculum compartmentalized into disciplines, it constitutes a barrier to the construction of knowledge-moreover when disciplines are, as a rule, closed in on themselves and bereft of mutual dialogue. The text is guided by the question: is scientific literacy possible without an interdisciplinary perspective? Due to the nature of this proposal, we attempt an invitation towards a dialectical state of our own teaching practice in face of the challenges posed by scientific literacy promotion. In virtue of the compartmentalization of school curricula, we conclude that science literacy will not succeed without the premise of interdisciplinarity in the teaching of science.
