PROPOSIÇÕES DIDÁTICAS PARA O FORMADOR QUÍMICO: A IMPORTÂNCIA DO TRIPLETE QUÍMICO, DA LINGUAGEM E DA EXPERIMENTAÇÃO INVESTIGATIVA NA FORMAÇÃO DOCENTE EM QUÍMICA

This theoretical paper proposes some pedagogical practices that may be applicable by chemical lecturers who teach in Chemistry teacher education courses. Those practices are based on three theoretical ideas: i) Johnstone’s triplet about the three levels of chemical knowledge (macroscopic, microscopic and symbolic) which imposes challenges due to the significance of chemical language, leading us to discuss ii) the importance of the verbal language in chemistry teaching-learning processes, and iii) in the role of investigative experiments for exploring students’ ideas and promote abstract th...
