A probabilidade de os alunos exercerem uma cidadania ativa no futuro é aumentada se os encorajarmos a agir agora, no presente, fornecendo-lhes oportunidades para que o façam e encarando-os já como cidadãos capazes de contribuir para a solução dos problemas atuais. A presente investigação, envolvendo um grupo de alunos do 8.º ano de escolaridade e as disciplinas de Ciências Naturais e Tecnologias da Informação e Comunicação, teve como finalidade o estudo do impacto da construção e divulgação de vodcasts, subordinados ao tema poluição ambiental, nas perceções dos alunos relativamente à sua capacitação para a ação e ao desenvolvimento de competências de ativismo. A construção de vodcasts pelos alunos, estando, geralmente, associada ao lazer e entretenimento, pode também ser utilizada como atividade de ensino e aprendizagem das ciências. Neste estudo, a sua construção e posterior divulgação foram também utilizadas como estratégia de ativismo, visando a educação e sensibilização dos cidadãos. Foi seguida uma abordagem qualitativa. Os resultados evidenciam uma evolução positiva nas perceções dos alunos quanto à sua capacitação para a ação e o desenvolvimento de competências fundamentais para uma ação coletiva fundamentada em investigação.
Abstract The likelihood of students pursuing an active citizenship in the future is increased if we encourage them to act now, in the present, providing them with opportunities to do so and seeing them as citizens capable of contributing to the solution of the current problems. The present research, involving a group of students from the 8th grade and the subjects of Natural Sciences and Technologies of Information and Communication, had the purpose of studying the impact of the construction and dissemination of vodcasts, subordinated to the theme of environmental pollution in the students’ perceptions regarding their action capacity and their development of activism skills. The construction of vodcasts by students, being usually associated with leisure and entertainment, can also be used as an activity for science teaching and learning. In this study, its construction and subsequent dissemination was also used as a strategy of activism aimed at education and raising public awareness. The study followed a qualitative approach. The results show a positive evolution in students' perceptions regarding their capacity for action, and the development of basic skills for a collective action based on research.
