| dc.description.abstract | The aim of this pilot study was to understand how the use of science comics, centred on complex scientific knowledge, can promote students’ engagement with science, in order to discuss its potentialities as a tool to communicate science for the general public. The qualitative study involved 175 students and 7 teachers. The results revealed that the use of comics significantly increases students’ motivation and commitment to the learning tasks. All participants highlighted that the narrative nature of comics, with a mixture of text and images, offering a story to follow, contributed to their engagement with the scientific topic, regardless of their complexity. | pt_PT |
