FERNANDES, Larissa  y  ZIROLDO, Bruno Duarte. THE USE OF GENETICS INFOGRAPHICS AS A DIDACTIC RESOURCE IN HIGH SCHOOL. Rev. Exitus [online]. 2020, vol.10, e020121.  Epub 31-Mar-2022. ISSN 2237-9460.  https://doi.org/10.24065/2237-9460.2020v10n1id1486.

Infographics are examples of multimodal texts, commonly used in news, reports or even technological-scientific dissemination. By using a combination of textual and representational languages, infographic is an interesting didactic resource to be used also in the high school students teaching and learning. When we analyze the contents of genetics we observe in the students a certain difficulty in understanding the concepts due to their complexity, being for that reason, the biology area chosen as the theme of the infographics. This work aims at creating and sharing at least ten infographics that contemplate different genetic areas, for educators and high school students and/or pre-students from the school community of the city of Londrina and region. Taking advantage of the facilities promoted on the digital evolution, channels of dissemination will be created through social networks and other platforms that will allow the dissemination of the same infographics to other communities more distant geographically, maximizing the sharing of all the information generated. By integrating the information and image modalities in a proportional way, we hope with this work to effectively contribute with both the teachers in the transmission of genetic concepts and their peculiarities in a more illustrative way, as with the students in the assimilation of more dense contents of a more interesting way. We also believe that this article will be able to collaborate with future research in the area of inphographics and its benefits in the teaching-learning process.
