Descripción
Sumario:Cordel literature is one of the main representatives of Brazilian popular culture, being considered a cultural patrimony of Brazil. In view of this importance, in recent years, different studies have highlighted several potentialities of its use in the school context. Thus, in this work, we focus our attention on the cordels that bring as a central theme knowledge related to the natural sciences. In this sense, throughout the article, we seek to answer the following research question: how can scientific cordels be thought of and used in the teaching of chemistry, so that they present all the formal rigor required in the genre and make it possible to achieve educational purposes relevant to the area? Therefore, the main objective of the work was to elaborate different scientific cordels, following the rigor of the literature and analyze the material regarding its limitations and potential to be used in the educational context of the Chemistry Teaching. In this way, we present three scientific cordels, which were prepared by one of the authors, together with the analysis of the material produced and suggestions for its use. Furthermore, to ensure that the poems had the desired characteristics, they were sent to different cordelist poets and different researchers in the field of chemistry teaching to be analyzed. The analysis of the poets revealed that the texts followed the rules required in the literature, while the analysis of the researchers pointed out different potentialities and limitations of them. At the end of the work, we present to each cordel a board of proposals to help the use of the material produced. The boards show different information about the poems, such as suggestions for activities, contents to be worked on, potential methodologies, interdisciplinary aspects, and possible limitations that may arise in an educational intervention.
