Resumo(s)
Respondendo ao desafio proposto pelo meu orientador Octávio Mateus, decidi escrever uma tese sobre o
ensino experimental e interativo de Paleontologia. Face a este estímulo, pesou o facto de trabalhar no
Pavilhão do Conhecimento - Centro Ciência Viva. A minha experiência de aproximadamente 20 anos
ajudou, e muito, a desenvolver as atividades aqui propostas. Duas décadas de trabalho na área da
museologia mostraram-me que este universo, a par da maioria das escolas básicas e secundárias, carece de
instrumentos experimentais interativos de Paleontologia. A reboque desta necessidade, encontram-se os
professores e profissionais de museus, que cada vez mais sentem falta de ferramentas hands-on que possam
utilizar nas suas práticas diárias. Esta tese pretende assim fornecer ferramentas que apetrechem todos os
interessados em equipar e melhorar os seus espaços museológicos, escolares e/ou outros. As atividades
interativas aqui expostas vão muito para além do ensino interativo da Paleontologia, abrangendo de igual
forma outros domínios da ciência, como a Geologia, a Biologia, a Matemática, a Física, a Química e a
Informática. Este trabalho tem também o intuito de despertar o interesse e o gosto de todos aqueles que
desejam ter uma profissão diferente e conhecer sítios nunca antes explorados, investigando a vida do
passado na Terra: a Paleontologia.
Answering the challenge proposed by my supervisor Octávio Mateus, I intend to write a thesis about the experimental and interactive teaching of Paleontology. The fact that I work at the Pavilion of Knowledge - Ciência Viva Centre was an important factor in my decision. My experience of about 20 years helped a lot to develop the activities proposed here. Two decades of working in the area of museology showed me that this universe – as well as most primary and secondary schools – lacks interactive experimental tools for Paleontology. Most affected by this are teachers and museum professionals, who increasingly feel the lack of hands-on tools that they can use in their daily practices. This thesis thus aims to provide tools that will equip all those interested in equipping and improving their museum, school and/or other spaces. The interactive activities described here go far beyond the interactive teaching of Palaeontology, covering other fields of science, such as Geology, Biology, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and Informatics. This work also aims to arouse the interest and passion of all those who dream of a different profession and getting to know unspoiled locations, researching the life of the past on Earth: Palaeontology.
