SANTOS, Juliana Cristina dos; ALVES, Luis Francisco Angeli; CORREA, João Jorge  and  SILVA, Everton Ricardi Lozano. Análise comparativa do conteúdo Filo Mollusca em livro didático e apostilas do ensino médio de Cascavel, Paraná. Ciência educ. [online]. 2007, vol.13, n.03, pp.311-322. ISSN 1516-7313.

The objective of this work was to carry out a comparative analysis between an instructional Biology book used in the junior year of high school in the school network system of the State of Paraná at the municipality of Cascavel, PR, and teacher's notes/handouts used by two schools in the private school network. After surveying and selecting the materials, these were submitted to a general analysis with regard to their cover, binding, line spacing, font size, illustrations, charts and tables, and also to a specific analysis in relation to their Phylum Mollusca contents, in which concepts, supplementary reading suggestions, typos and conceptual errors, printing and proofreading errors, and illustrations were taken into consideration. It was observed that all learning materials analyzed showed imperfections; however, a higher number of imperfections was found in one set of teacher's notes, because besides having an extremely succinct content and not presenting any planning in relation to the proposed activities, it contained incorrect images without self-explanatory labels.

Keywords : Learning Materials; Phylum Mollusca; Quality; Zoology Teaching.
