Teaching and analysis of a chemistry didactic sequence: contributions for reflective pre-service teacher training

Abstract:

Teaching proposals have pointed out the need for teachers mediate knowledge development by students. Therefore, future teachers must experience contexts, methodologies and teaching and learning strategies that can be critically reflected upon. The Oriented Reflection Process is a proposal for pre service teachers to reflect about their experiences during the design and development stages related to future teaching practice. In this sense, this study investigated the contributions of oriented reflection processes by a pre-service chemistry teacher during the implementation and analysis of a class sequence proposed by herself, within the investigative and scientific literacy approach. The results show that the pre-service teacher developed their practice by considering some investigative aspects, which contributed to a more reflective teacher practice.
