SILVA, Marcelo Scabelo da  e  CAMPOS, Carlos Roberto Pires. Investigative activities in the training of science teachers: a field class in the Barreiras Formation of Marataízes, ES. Ciência educ.

The creative use of non-formal settings can help to surpass the traditional teaching in schools, providing, through interdisciplinary, the construction of values, knowledge and skills, for approaching for example the Earth System. Field classes emerge as an important methodology for understanding the relationship between living space and information constructed in the classroom, allowing students to have a better familiarity with physical and natural aspects of their region. This paper reports research in the field of methodology of science teaching, which took place on a non-formal educational setting, the cliffs of Marataízes, Espírito Santo State, in Brazil. The investigation aimed to highlight the field classes as a teaching methodology able to encourage critical reading of the world and collaborative work. The field lessons revealed the inseparability between subject and object of learning and provided opportunities to recognize man/environment relationships, allowing the acquisition of awareness of the transformations in nature through the means of scientific literacy.
