Dramatizing the structure of DNA and Heredity: A new way teaching genetics

The teaching of genetics in secondary schools faces significant challenges, particularly when dealing with complex content such as the structure of DNA and heredity linked to sex chromosomes. This book is a pedagogical contribution that aims to improve the treatment of these contents in Grade 10, combining theoretical foundations with innovative teaching methodologies. The book presents a critical analysis of the difficulties encountered by teachers and students in the teaching-learning process of Genetics, highlighting the need for innovative strategies that make scientific concepts more accessible and meaningful. In this context, dramatization is proposed as an effective pedagogical tool, capable of promoting understanding of the structure of DNA and facilitating the assimilation of concepts related to sex-linked heredity. The book integrates the theoretical basis of Genetics with practical guidelines for implementing educational activities, including activities, scripts and evaluation suggestions. It is aimed at teachers, researchers and students interested in active teaching methodologies, offering a theoretical and practical reference.
