MIRANDA, Mayara de Souza; MARCONDES, Maria Eunice Ribeiro  and  SUART, Rita de Cássia. PROMOTING SCIENTIFIC LITERACY THROUGH INVESTIGATIVE TEACHING IN SECONDARY SCHOOL'S CHEMISTRY CLASS: CONTRIBUTIONS TO INITIAL TEACHER'S EDUCATION. Ens. Pesqui. Educ. Ciênc. [online]. 2015, vol.17, n.3, pp.555-583. ISSN 1983-2117.  https://doi.org/10.1590/1983-21172015170302.

This study analyzed the investigative levels and the indicators of Scientific Literacy promoted in high school's chemistry students. The research was conducted with the use of a didactic teaching sequence developed and taught by a soon-to-be-graduated chemistry teacher, participant in a group of oriented reflection. Moreover, research also enabled us to understand the contribution of the actions developed by the teacher in training. The results show that the classes contemplated investigative characteristics and indicators related with promotion of Scientific Literacy (AC) in the classroom. The research had a satisfactory result since the students were involved in the investigation and discussions, and the teacher had the opportunity to develop, implement and evaluate a sequence of classes which contributed significantly to her teacher training.

Keywords : Pre service teacher; Oriented reflection; Scientific literacy..
