Resumo: |
Nowadays, the theory of biological evolution is fundamental to the understanding of biology as a science. Thus, the study of this is relevant for teacher training, also having consequences for the clarity of citizens regarding the role of biological sciences and science in general for the analysis of the world. Evolutionary theory, since its proposition from Charles Darwin (1809-1882), has been related not only to the natural world, but also to the social world, being used to justify or ground actions and theories about the human being and reality that surrounds us. Considering that science is a human enterprise that can not detach itself from social elements, I have tried in this work to recognize if and how the biological evolution theory is being used to understand and explain social elements by teachers-in-training of the course of biological sciences of the Federal University of Goiás. For this, an open questionnaire was elaborated, which was applied to the students of the referred course, covering the students of the first and last periods of the graduation. The questions were elaborated from the reference used in the dissertation, and deal with the relation of biological evolution with the areas of theology/teleology, psychology, ethics/morals and valuation of human life. The data were analyzed and discussed, concluding that the students adhered, with representative indices, to biologicism, in which biology and its scientific theories are used to make assertions that exceed the competences of the natural sciences. This data was obtained mainly in the subject of "theology/teleology". However, it is noteworthy that, probably due to the specific disciplines of the degree, the social world presented autonomy in relation to the biological one in which it is related to the subjects discussed, which can be observed in the last three questions. Also highlighted was the lack of clarity regarding the topics addressed, suggesting the existence of obstacles to the construction of relations between evolutionary theory and social issues among the participants. Attention was drawn to the fact that, in some questions, the opinions of the participants of the first period and last periods of the course tended to equality, suggesting that the undergraduate did not contribute much to reflections on the subject. |
