Resumo: | This dissertation presents the theoretical foundations used in the elaboration and evaluation of
a planetarium session in flat screen video format on the theme “The bees and the Skies”,
aimed at the general public, as well as the session script, the evaluation by the audience who
attended its first presentation and the link to the video. The theme of the session aims to link
Education in Astronomy and Environmental Education, considering the need for broader
environmental awareness among the population and based on Sauvé's reflections (1997, 2005,
2008) on ways of seeing the environment when working with Environmental Education. To
prepare the session, we used the steps proposed by Freitas et al. (2013, 2015). In defining the
content and theme of the session, a study was carried out, with 81 people, on concepts about
bees and their abilities to navigate the sky, among students and people in general, in RN. This
process resulted in a session with a general message: “Bees are essential for life on Earth and
their perception of the sky is fundamental for their survival”. The information centers covered
content such as: the disappearance of bees; its importance in pollination; their use of the Sun
for navigating the sky and communicating about food sources; its differentiated perception of
the polarized light of the sky; cultural representations of bees in the skies; and bees in the RN.
To evaluate the product, an interactive presentation was held for the general public, in which
14 people participated via Google Meet. The video display (31min) plus the interactions
lasted, in all, 1h30min. In addition to data obtained from personal notes and chat about
interactions, we used, as main evaluative instruments, an electronic form and, in a
complementary way, two online interviews with a Personal Meaning Map (FALK;
MOUSSOURI; COULSON, 1998). The data from the forms were organized into categories
(BARDIN, 2006), highlighting, among other aspects, the main lessons indicated by the public
that evaluated it, which covered the following topics: the sensitivity of Apis mellifera bees to
polarized light scattered in the sky; how it is used by these animals to track the Sun
throughout the day and communicate about food sources; and the representations of bees in
the sky by the Tupi Guarani. In general terms, most of the evaluators indicated that they
enjoyed the session and that they would strongly recommend it to other people. We also
identified some improvements to be made, such as the audio quality of the video and
reinforcements, in the interactions, around subjects such as the polarization of the sky and the
daily movement of the Sun and the other stars in the celestial vault. During the session, Basic
Education teachers highlighted the video's potential for interdisciplinary work in schools,
especially in elective disciplines. Our expectation is that the dissemination of the link to the
video of the session will reach more people and can thus contribute, in the most diverse
educational contexts, including planetariums and schools, to an education focused on raising
awareness about the environment. |
