O ensino de biologia sob uma perspectiva astrobiológica investigativa

Abstract

This work sought to expose the "metadiscipline" of Astrobiology in such a way that the contents dialogued with each other. The "world" was thought of as a whole; thus, ways of thinking about it took "body". The intention was to build an interdisciplinary didactic sequence with an investigative approach from an astrobiological perspective, in relation to the origin of life. There was a reach in the theological, philosophical, and scientific domains. Some understanding of the evolution of scientific thought and the origin of the nature of the sciences was gained. The development occurred within a troubled time: the occurrence of a pandemic: Covid-19. Assuming that the human being is curious by nature, it was speculated about the existence or not of life in another space of the cosmos that was not only our planet Earth. The students' protagonism in the construction of biological knowledge was explored. It was possible to observe the influence of the learner's previous culture on the effective way of building scientific knowledge.
