Pesquisa-ação em Educação: inovação na introdução do intraempreendedorismo no Ensino Fundamental através de oficinas de confecção de foguetes

Abstract

The study aimed to develop strategies to raise awareness of intrapreneurship in Middle School (6th to 9th grade), through rocket-making workshops supported by mini-cases and videos. To achieve this goal, a predominantly qualitative approach was adopted, employing the action research methodology. The results highlighted a significant increase in students' interest in Natural Sciences, even enabling their participation in a prestigious scientific olympiad. Additionally, there was a noticeable improvement in students' scientific literacy, thus contributing to their formation as conscientious citizens. As part of the study, the "Science videos" channel was created on YouTube, which combines technological entrepreneurship and intrapreneurship in science education, offering pedagogical support resources for teachers. A manual for making simple rockets was also developed, using accessible materials such as plastic bottles and pressurized water.
