Therefore, it is necessary to teach science in basic education to develop these required skills. Thus, this research aimed to understand and analyze the contributions of the Problem Based Learning (PBL) methodology guided by the Science, Technology and Society (STS) approach for the development of scientific education purposes and for decision making, from a pedagogical experience in high school. This study is of qualitative nature according to Bogdan and Biklen (1994) of the exploratory type (MARCONI; LAKATOS, 2018), which took place in a private school in a peripheral neighborhood of Belém, Pará, with 12 students from the first year of high school. The experience took place through a sequence of socio-scientific issues (SSI) that dealt with the topics, anabolic and cancer, and which were resolved through an adaptation of the PBL methodology. The main instruments used to compose the data were the researcher's personal notes and the transcriptions of the video recordings of the students' presentations during the resolution of the SSI. The main results were: the mobilization of biology concepts articulated with technological, social, ethical, political, economic and legal aspects; collaborative learning; and decision-making aimed at the community. And from these results, it is clear that it is possible to infer that the STS approach articulated to PBL has the potential to develop, in high school, the purposes of scientific education focused on scientific literacy, training for citizenship through the social use of scientific and technological knowledge.Acesso AbertoAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/br/Enfoque CTSMetodologia da ABPFormação para a cidadaniaQuestões sociocientíficasBiologia do câncerSTS focusPBL MethodologyCitizenship formationSocio-scientific IssuesCancer BiologyO enfoque ciência, tecnologia e sociedade e a aprendizagem baseada em problemas: possibilidades para a promoção da educação científica na educação básicaDissertaçãoCNPQ::CIENCIAS HUMANAS::EDUCACAOCNPQ::CIENCIAS EXATAS E DA TERRA::MATEMATICAENSINO E APRENDIZAGEM DE CIÊNCIAS E MATEMÁTICAS PARA A EDUCAÇÃO CIDADÃENSINO, APRENDIZAGEM E FORMAÇÃO DE PROFESSORES DE CIÊNCIAS E MATEMÁTICAS
