Proposta de articulação entre tecnologias de informação e comunicação e ensino de química orgânica: o software avogadro

Abstract

The classes still show the traditional as the predominant method of teaching, because of this, students are passive agents in learning. But this has been changing with the use of resources for a more active and thus meaningful learning, with this the student takes learning from the classroom to their daily lives. The resources to be used can present everyday life, have a relationship between science, technology and society or, as a focus in this work, the use of information and communication technologies (ICT). The interactive points are very important for the student to have a better interaction and communication, thus overcoming the limits of the classroom, becoming an important part of society as a whole. In chemistry, the use of resources is even more important, bringing to understanding concepts that were previously seen in a complex and abstract way, so this work aims to situate ICT's in the face of the challenges of chemical education today, to bring a bibliographic survey of ICT's used in teaching and learning chemistry, more specifically organic chemistry and presenting some ways to use the Avogadro software that contribute to the threedimensional representation of organic molecules, since the survey results, in general, do not present many satisfactory technological proposals teaching for organic chemistry, being even more scarce for the use of software, concluding that this is an area that has much to be explored.
