The general objective was to analyze the perception of students from a school in Alto Oeste Potiguar regarding their Chemistry learning concerning the use of DICTs during the pandemic and post-pandemic periods. Methodologically, the research adopted a qualitative, descriptive, and exploratory approach, utilizing both bibliographical and field research. Data collection was carried out through a questionnaire applied to 22 participants, including 8 alumni from the year 2021 and 14 students from the year 2025. The results indicate that platforms such as Google Classroom, WhatsApp, and YouTube were essential for the continuity of classes during social isolation, and they continue to serve as pedagogical supports upon the return to classrooms. Specifically in Chemistry, the use of virtual simulators such as PhET and Javalab, videos, and the use of Artificial Intelligence stood out, facilitating learning and increasing student engagement. It is concluded that, despite the challenges, the pandemic led to the development of new teaching approaches through technology. As a continuation, it is suggested to analyze teachers' perceptions of DICTs and the growing influence of Artificial Intelligence in education. 2026-04-08T00:00:00Z http://memoria.ifrn.edu.br/handle/1044/3218 O uso do “anime fullmetal alchemist : brotherhood” como recurso didático para o ensino das leis ponderais The teaching of Chemistry presents challenges related to the understanding of abstract concepts, especially in the study of the Laws of Definite Proportions, fundamental to understanding chemical transformations and the conservation of matter. In this context, it becomes relevant to investigate pedagogical strategies that bring scientific content closer to the cultural universe of students. Thus, this work analyzes the pedagogical potential of the anime Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood as a didactic resource for contextualizing the Laws of Definite Proportions in Chemistry teaching. The research was guided by the following research question: how can the anime contribute to the approach of these concepts in high school? The objective was to present pedagogical possibilities for contextualizing the Laws of Definite Proportions through the narrative of the work. Methodologically, this is a qualitative, documentary, and descriptive research, based on the assumptions of Gil (2008). The corpus consisted of episodes that present conceptual relationships with the contributions of Antoine Laurent Lavoisier, Joseph Louis Proust, and John Dalton. The results and discussions indicate that the anime's narrative makes it possible to establish pedagogical analogies between the principle of equivalent exchange and the fundamentals of the Laws of Definite Proportions, favoring the contextualization of content and expanding the possibilities for didactic mediation in secondary education. 2026-04-14T00:00:00Z http://memoria.ifrn.edu.br/handle/1044/3097 Inclusão de alunos com deficiência no curso de licenciatura em química: desafios e possibilidades nos ditos docentes Este estudio, titulado "Inclusión de Estudiantes con Discapacidad en el Curso de Licenciatura en Química: Desafíos y Posibilidades en las Percepciones Docentes", analiza la complejidad y los desafíos de la práctica educativa inclusiva en el contexto de la educación superior, con enfoque en el curso de Licenciatura en Química. El objetivo principal de la investigación es investigar los desafíos enfrentados por los docentes y las posibilidades de inclusión de estudiantes con discapacidad en el curso, basándose en el análisis de sus experiencias y percepciones. El estudio adoptó un enfoque cualitativo y una investigación de campo descriptiva. Como instrumento de recolección de datos, se utilizó un cuestionario aplicado a 5 docentes. El análisis se realizó de forma interpretativa, identificando patrones y temas en las respuestas, con el fin de comprender las experiencias de los participantes en el contexto cultural y social. Los resultados contribuyeron a una reflexión sobre las prácticas inclusivas en la educación superior, destacando la necesidad de una transformación social en la cual se valore la diversidad y todos los estudiantes tengan la oportunidad de alcanzar su máximo potencial. Finalmente, se espera que este estudio inspire a otras instituciones a repensar sus prácticas pedagógicas y promover una educación más inclusiva, alineada con los valores de justicia social e igualdad de oportunidades. 2024-12-12T00:00:00Z http://memoria.ifrn.edu.br/handle/1044/3096 Produção de biodiesel como proposta de reciclagem ao óleo residual de fritura: uma pesquisa de viabilidade econômica no município frutuoso gomes The growing demand for energy sources has driven society to develop technologies and seek alternatives that are reshaping the world and environmental structures on an unprecedented scale. The increasing extraction of fossil resources has raised pollution levels on our planet. The key to addressing part of this issue lies in the concept of "sustainability." Cooking oils, commonly used for frying, have properties that can be explored and utilized as renewable fuel. This study aims to reuse residual frying oils as raw material for biodiesel synthesis, investigating, through chemical processes and analyses, the potential of this raw material as a fuel. 2025-04-15T00:00:00Z
