LINHEIRA, Caroline Zabendzala; CASSIANI, Suzani  and  MOHR, Adriana. Desafios para o ensino de ciências na classe hospitalar: relato de uma experiência com pesquisa e ensino na formação de professores. Ciência educ. [online]. 2013, vol.19, n.03, pp.535-554. ISSN 1516-7313.

School teaching for hospitalized children was established in Brazil through the Estatuto da Criança e do Adolescente. In the State of Santa Catarina it went in effect in 1999. The Joana de Gusmão Children’s Hospital in Florianópolis was pioneer in establishing classes for children from 5th to 8th grades, following the State curricular directives for basic education. The present article describes the methods and activities adopted for Science teaching in that setting. It resulted from a qualitative type of research intended to describe the performance of teachers as a case study, as a pioneer joint experience of a research group of the Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina and the hospital’s pedagogic sector. The authors identified problems and possible ways to develop pedagogic practices adapted to be used in the hospital environment.

Keywords : Science Teaching; Hospital; Basic Education; Teacher Education.
