Science teaching still suffers from a disconnect between subjects and a lack of space for students to create hypotheses

“Teaching is a sea of ​​nonsense. Things don't connect. Since the 1980s, there has been a movement to try to link science to everyday life. Science is a way of understanding and explaining the world around us, but this connection is not made”, says Sílvia Figueirôa, coordinator of the Multiunit Postgraduate Program in Science and Mathematics Teaching (Pecim) at Unicamp.
