BILAR, Jéssica de Góes  and  COUTINHO, Renato Xavier. Methodological aspects in the teaching of chemistry: scientometric analysis. Educ. quím [online]. 2021, vol.32, n.2, pp.88-97.  Epub Oct 11, 2021. ISSN 0187-893X.  https://doi.org/10.22201/fq.18708404e.2021.2.76554.

The teaching of chemistry is constantly changing over the years, as it is believed that research teachers in the / field are always looking for new teaching methods that will positively impact the process of teaching and learning this science. However, a teaching method that still remains innovative is the use of themes to contextualize, problematize and introduce the scientific content that is intended in the classroom. In this sense, this study aims to analyze the production of knowledge, at the national level on the use of themes in the teaching of chemistry from different methodologies, in the period between 2015 and 2019. For this purpose, the Catalogue of Theses and Dissertations (CAPES) was elected to search the data, based on scientiometry to analyze them. The analysis consists of 116 academic productions, composed by theses and dissertations. It was observed that the themes focused on the approach of food and environment themes, based on the predominance of the "didactic sequence" methodology. Therefore, the production of knowledge on the use of themes in the teaching of chemistry is still in second place in the interventions, however, the use of several themes is highlighted, demonstrating the vast possibility of contextualizing the teaching of chemistry.
