Alternative conceptions and collaborative learning: a proposal for an activity involving the Jigsaw method in the content of atomic models in the technical course in chemistry

Abstract

This work aims to analyze the alternative conceptions about the concepts of atomic models using the Cooperative Jigsaw learning methodology with students of the first semester of the Concomitant/Subsequent technical course in Chemistry at the IFSP - Campus Capivari. The analyzes of alternative conceptions were guided by the methodologies of Conceptual Profile and Multimodal Semiotic Analysis. It was found that the students' alternative conceptions were being restructured according to the studies of atomic models using the Jigsaw method, in addition to having developed intrapersonal and interpersonal skills.
