MELO, José Romário de  e  CARMO, Edinaldo Medeiros. Investigações sobre o ensino de genética e biologia molecular no ensino médio brasileiro: reflexões sobre as publicações científicas. Ciência educ. [online]. 2009, vol.15, n.03, pp.593-611. ISSN 1516-7313.

The objective of this work was to analyze the publications related to the teaching of Genetics and Molecular Biology in Brazilian High Schools. We analyzed studies published from 1999 to 2008. The Revista Genética na Escola presents the most published articles. The publications were classified into different categories, such as: textbook analysis (ALD), history (HIS), intra-interdisciplinarity (IID), teaching methodology (MEE), curriculum proposals (PRC) and other (OUT). Equivalent numbers of articles in ALD, HIS and PRC categories are published in very low quantity, however the number of articles published in categories IID and MEE total almost 73% of the publications found in the others (all other categories together total about 27%). This study has considered that research dedicated to the teaching of Genetics and Molecular Biology is still in its early stages, related to High Schools in elementary teaching in Brazil.
