Abstract

A summary of the research conducted in the Master's Thesis in Education in Experimental Sciences and Technology of the Faculty of Exact, Physical, and Natural Sciences at the National University of Córdoba is presented, defended and approved on May 2, 2024, by Professor of Chemistry Norma Beatriz Jones from the province of Chubut, under the direction of Dr. María Gabriela Lorenzo, GINEDIC-CIAEC-UBA-CONICET.

In this thesis, the teaching activities implemented by their teachers in the training trajectories of two curricular units in a teacher training institution were described and characterized with the objective of analyzing how the teaching of chemistry was resolved with laboratory activities during the isolation of the Covid-19 pandemic. The research design was ex post facto retrospective in a natural context, with a descriptive-interpretive scope and qualitative approach, applying data collection techniques, such as interviews and document analysis. Elements of content analysis and grounded theory were used to analyze the data. Practical laboratory work was replaced by simple experimental activities in digital environments with expansion to the extended laboratory model, with traditional and directed research teaching approaches prevailing. The results will constitute inputs for future studies in the field of chemistry teaching.
