O MUDI-UEM como espaço de aprendizagem para licenciandos em Pedagogia:

experiência do ensino de Ciências não formal

Abstract

This research aimed to investigate the experiences before and after the didactic visit of 25 undergraduate students from the Pedagogy course at MUDI-UEM, in order to investigate their reflections on the museum as a resource and non-formal space for teaching Science in the initial years. . For this, two questionnaires were applied: a pre-questionnaire, applied before the didactic-pedagogical visit, and a post-questionnaire, applied later.  Initially, it was found that, despite MUDI-UEM being one of the university's spaces, the majority of undergraduates did not know about this location. However, the undergraduates were able to list skills, abilities, advantages and disadvantages of using the museum as a teaching and learning space, verifying its potential. Finally, in general, the graduates concluded that, like schools, non-formal spaces are spaces that enable dialogues about everyday issues and playfulness in the educational process.
