Abstract:
Digital Information and Communication Technologies (TDIC), together with Active
Methodologies (AM), are tools that can collaborate with the teaching-learning
process, because when worked together they can enhance the understanding of
themes that circumscribe paleontology in the teaching of Sciences. Currently, the
daily use of smartphones and different technologies are present in the school
environment and in the daily lives of students. Given this context, the present work
aims to carry out a mapping of methodological proposals that address themes of
paleontology and the use of digital technologies in Science teaching. As a
methodology, a bibliographic review was carried out through a qualitative research of
a basic nature and with an exploratory bias using mapping and narrative review. In
addition to virtual games, it was found that virtual visits to museums and the use of
films can be used as effective alternatives for teaching Science. The results show the
significant lack of virtual applications in the field of paleontology. However, it is
believed that digital technologies can work together to bring the context of
paleontological themes to science teaching and in the classroom. It is expected that
the use of virtual didactic methodologies will be increasingly used within school
environments, that these alternatives will be more present in formal education
contexts.
