Podcast e Blog como instrumentos para o ensino e divulgação científica em Astronomia

Abstract

This work presents an intervention proposal focused on science communication and the teaching of Astronomy, based on two educational products: podcast episodes and a blog. The methodology adopted includes applied research and content analysis. The podcast episodes were produced by high school students from a public school in the city of Santa Terezinha (BA), addressing topics aligned with the BNCC and the school curriculum. The blog was created to organize and disseminate the educational products developed within the Professional Master’s Program in Astronomy at UEFS (MPASTRO), facilitating access through thematic and educational stage filters. Preliminary data show that, although there is significant production within MPASTRO, these materials are still underused, which reinforces the need for more effective dissemination strategies. The two products presented here contribute to the pedagogical use of Astronomy and encourage practices that value students’ active participation as well as teachers’ access to diversified resources.
