A utilização dos mapas conceituais como técnica potencializadora da aprendizagem de química orgânica

Abstract

This Course Conclusion Paper was produced to portray a research on the use of Concept Maps as a technique for the study of organic chemistry. This project was carried out with 3° year high school students from a state school in the metropolitan region of Recife in Pernambuco, all remotely, through Google Meet. The general objective of this research was to analyze the perception of the studied group regarding the use of Concept Maps as a technique for studying and learning Organic Chemistry, so the following steps were considered: presentation of the concept of concept map to the group participating in the project; production, together with the class, of concept maps to exemplify ways to build this tool; survey of the grades of the Chemistry tests that took place during the project, both the sample group and the population grades, application of the Student t-type hypothesis test with the averages of the grades and, finally, the satisfaction of the studied group was evaluated with relation to Concept Maps as a study and learning tool through a questionnaire. As a result, it was possible to observe a statistical improvement in the mean of the group that used this learning technique from the second test carried out during the research and that most of the sample group used and verified concept maps as a study technique, mainly as a review tool.
