Descrição

Science Trails are educational activities where students design physical paths with various stations or stops that raise awareness about topics relevant to their community. These trails provide an engaging way for students to learn and apply knowledge from different school subjects in a real-world context.

The process begins with students selecting the topics they wish to address, based on their community’s needs. Teachers guide the students through this process, helping them identify impactful subjects. Once chosen, students research their surroundings and engage with key stakeholders such as local experts, community leaders, and residents, ensuring the content resonates with the community’s characteristics.

Next, students co-create the stations along the trail, using interactive approaches to engage visitors. Each station highlights specific aspects of the topics, employing activities, experiments, and multimedia presentations. Throughout this process, students take the lead, with teachers providing guidance. This approach fosters ownership, critical thinking, problem-solving, and communication skills.

Finally, the Science Trail is presented to the public, offering students a chance to showcase their work and share insights. This public presentation raises awareness about important local and global issues and celebrates students’ achievements.

Science Trails integrate multiple school subjects, promote community engagement, and provide students with a meaningful, hands-on learning experience. By leading each step, students gain valuable skills and a deeper understanding of the world around them, making a positive impact on their community.
