OLIVEIRA, Maria Alice Felipe; ANDRADE, Layla Cely Rodrigues; ARAUJO, Camila Maria Mendes and ARAUJO, Valdevane Rocha. Promotion of knowledge in biology in high school through the use of different pedagogical tools. Acta Educ. [online]. 2023, vol.45, e59379. Epub Aug 01, 2023.

Although the profile of students has changed, and the big diversity of the available didactic tools, the teaching methods remain the same. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of several didactic tools in the transmission of biology knowledge. The didactic tools used were: (1) Practical classes in the science laboratory, (2) Silent theater, and (3) Question game or Quiz. All the tools were applied after the expository classes, being evaluated through questionnaires assigned according to the Likert scale from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree). Results revealed that all the used methodologies were considered very important for the learning of the participants. Thus, it can be seen that simple and financially accessible didactic tools are also adequate to help the teaching-learning process, such as biology contents.
