Relato de experiência da monitoria em zoologia dos invertebrados.

Abstract

The academic tutoring program works as a pedagogical support activity that directly involves students, tutors and teachers in order to promote the development of the disciplines, as well as to facilitate the teaching and learning process. To report the experience of a tutor in Invertebrate Zoology (I and II), based on the training practice with classes in the first and second periods of the Bachelor's Degree in Biological Sciences at the Center for Education and Health (CES), at the Universidade Federal de Campina Grande (UFCG). The experience report from the methodological perspective is framed as a form of narrative, where the author narrates through writing, an experience lived from subjective and objective observations, from the problematization, interventions and techniques applied. The experience reported here took place between November and April 2022, during the Invertebrate Zoology I (semester 2021.1) and Invertebrate Zoology II (semester 2022.2) courses between March 2023 and June 2023. Among the main reports, we discuss that the monitoring adds to my student education, contributes to my engagement with other students and provides me with experiences that encourage my academic education, promoting autonomy in the guidance of content to other students, both academically and personally, also contributing to the improvement of the Bachelor's Degree in Biological Sciences course. We consider that academic monitoring stands out as a driver and strengthener of such a process, being another space for the collective construction of knowledge, breaking with traditional teaching patterns (verticalization and depository education).
