One of the great challenges for biology teachers is still the lack of teaching materials that can facilitate and improve students' understanding of the content taught. Therefore, the objective of this work was to present the process of building didactic models with low-cost materials for use in innovative methodological practices in teaching biology in basic education through playfulness. In this exploratory an...
The objective of this study was to present and analyze the effectiveness of the intervention strategies proposed by a professor of the Biological Sciences Degree course in the Distance modality of Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte, which were intended to improve the quality of the record of the reports written by the students of the supervised internship, with a view to achieving the goals proposed by S...
Chromobacterium violaceum is one of millions of species of free-living microorganisms that populate the soil and water in the extant areas of tropical biodiversity around the world. Its complete genome sequence reveals (i) extensive alternative pathways for energy generation, (ii) ≈500 ORFs for transport-related proteins, (iii) complex and extensive systems for stress adaptation and motility, and (iv) wide-spre...
Thousands of people living in semi-arid regions face problems of drought and loss of water quality. In addition, high incidence of acute diarrheal diseases related to water consumption has been responsible for a high number of deaths and high economic costs for human health. Many of the diseases can be caused by the presence of enterobacteria in reservoirs that serve for multiple purposes. This study aimed to c...
This study evaluated the use of sustainability concepts in the content taught by pre-service Biological Sciences teachers during their in-class supervised teacher training period, in primary and secondary school classes. It also analyzed the methodological resources used to address these concepts. Results showed that the majority of participants (64.8%) cannot develop the content taught in science, or specifica...
