A abordagem CTSA na matriz referência e em itens do ENEM: um olhar específico para a física

Abstract

Conducted in the context of a professional master's degree, this study aimed to analyze and discuss, from the perspective of the STS approach, Enem items and reference matrix skills related to Physics, assuming interdisciplinarity and contextualization as assumptions of the STS approach. The research presents as product a series of four videos produced for Youtube, whose scripts were elaborated with a group of teachers of Physics of the Basic Education, in the context of a continuous formation about the relation between the STS approach and the Enem. For analysis and discussion of the items and skills, seven editions of the exam between 2011 and 2017 were explored. This study considered the unidimensionality of the Enem items, the fact that each one of them proposes to specifically evaluate a skill. of the reference matrix, with the ability information evaluated by each item taken from the Enem microdata, released by Inep after each exam edition, thus establishing for the group of items analyzed a corresponding group of skills. Thus, taking a specific look at Physics, analyzing not only the items, but also the corresponding skills establishing the item / skill relationship, the research seeks to identify approximations between the STS approach and the Enem. The analysis methodology used was Laurence Bardin's Content Analysis, through which it was first identified in the item group those that presented approximations with the STS approach, proceeding in the same way with the skills related to the items in this group. The items and skills that from Content Analysis were related to the STS approach were organized into three categories: Perception Development (DP), Question Development (DQ) and Social Commitment Development (DCS), categories adapted from the Roseline Strieder's doctoral dissertation, which allowed us to understand how the elements analyzed approached the STS approach. Thus, when analyzing 105 items and the 18 skills related to these items, the results indicated that in only 11 items (10.5%) we approached the STS approach, which occurred for a group of 10 skills (55.5%). %). This allows us to infer that, although the STS approach is related to a large number of Enem Reference Matrix skills, it is not observed in a similar proportion to the items related to Physics content present in the exam. Thus, the study indicates that the items analyzed do not jointly privilege interdisciplinarity and contextualization as one might expect, since these two perspectives, according to the official documents, underlie the Enem.
