Clube de ciências da Universidade Federal do Pará: ensino de ciências e divulgação científica: um estudo iconográfico antropológico narrativo

Abstract

I seek in this dissertation to analyze epistemological and historical aspects of science teaching at the Clube de Ciências da Universidade Federal do Pará - CCIUFPA. For this, I make use of photographic images of the collection of the Clube de Ciências and the personal collection of teachers and coordinators graduated from this training space. In this research, I begin with my first contacts with photography, which is designed since my childhood in Quilombo de Mangueiras, located in the Ilha do Marajó, in the city of Salvaterra, in the Estado do Pará, until the current moment of this master's research. The problematization of this research occurs through memorialistic reports evoked from photographs of people who lived the CCIUFPA in different times. For the analysis of speeches and images, I make use of relevant theoretical elements that help me in the collection of information and in the construction of data. I seek anthropological theoretical contribution in the thinking of theorists such as Geertz, Campos, Bourdieu, Kossoy, as well as Hine and Turkle to discuss virtual anthropology. As this is a qualitative research in the narrative modality, I take the theoretical perspective of Clandinin and Connelly. For the analytical movement, I make use of the discursive textual analysis of Moraes e Galiazzi. As the research took place during the Covid-19 pandemic, caused by the Sars-Cov 2 coronavirus, part of the interviews were conducted virtually, and to respect scientific limits, I make use of theorists who assist me in this process. The analytical movement made it possible to build two categories dealing with Scientific Initiation and Scientific Communication in the historical trajectory of science teaching at CCIUFPA.
