Resumo
This study analyzes the movement for interdisciplinary approximation among
specialists in different fields of knowledge, taking into consideration their
epistemological and pedagogical aspects, from the perspective of a wider
understanding of reality, perceived as a dynamic and complex whole. The analysis
was undertaken within a Unit of Research in Science´s Teaching, originally made up
of science teachers at different levels of formation, along with professors involved in
Teacher Formation at the School of Civil Engineering. Four State Schools and a
Federal Center of Technology also participated in the project. In this context, this
study proposes to discuss the possible dimensions of the relations and interactions
between specialists in science teaching and civil engineering, in order to understand
the epistemological way of building interdisciplinarity into the teaching of the
sciences. The unit held fifteen meetings, during which science teachers at different
levels participated undergraduates, Master students, engineering professors and
student engineers. From among the fifteen meetings, all filmed in VHS and
transcribed, six were selected for analysis. Methodologically, this study is considered
a participative research. For analytical purposes, the reflections obtained were
grouped into three categories: i) the conceptions of interdisciplinarity of the different
groups which make up the unit; ii) the approximation dynamics between the teaching
of the sciences and civil engineering; iii) the contribution of this approximation.
Considering the complex epistemological nature of interdisciplinarity and the need for
renewal in the teaching of the sciences, this analysis points towards the need to
promote new dialogues, based on a broad understanding of the foundations of
sciences, at the different levels of production and appropriation of science. It was
also seen that the analysis of a certain problematic, from an interdisciplinary
perspective, generates a broader view of the ways and possible strategies needed
for overcoming these difficulties, by providing indications and solutions that are more
global than those obtained from an individualized approach to the object in question.
On analyzing the nature of the relations referred and the building of interdisciplinarity
from epistemological, pedagogical, historical, political and social aspects, this study
is, therefore, justified by the character of its propositions and by the critical reflective
task of understanding the dynamics of the thinking which underlies such integration.
