Aplicativo android como facilitador do ensino de ciências biológicas

The proper use and insertion of Mobile and Wireless Information and Communication Technologies (TIMS) can significantly favor different possibilities in the teaching-learning-evaluation process in biology teaching. Our central objective in this text was to understand how students from a public high school relate to TIMS and, moreover, how they perceive their learn in the Biology curricular component. We used a self-administered questionnaire, which was applied in the presence of the researcher, answered by 220 participants. The results showed that more than 97% of students have access to TIMS, more than 60% use smartphones for more than six hours/day and 75% of them said they liked biological content. However, the use of TIMS, with pedagogical purpose in the classroom, is denied or neglected by biology teachers.
