Abstract:
Abstract Textbooks’ fundamental influence on teaching is caused not only by their subject matter, but also by their didactic elaboration. Textbooks’ individual functions are fulfilled through incorporated structural elements. Their pool is referred to as the didactic equipment of the textbook and represents qualities of the textbook through the options it gives to its users. The presented overview of lower-secondary chemistry textbooks’ didactic equipment included 7 series of currently available textbooks. Results of the analysis serve not only as a possible guide for chemistry teachers’ textbook selection, but they also provide insight into the current state to authors of textbooks and other didactic materials. Chemistry textbooks for lower-secondary schools achieve relatively high didactic equipment (75-92 %). The best equipped are the series of textbooks published after the current state curriculum introduction (by publishing houses Fraus and Nova Skola). Surprisingly, however, the most recently published textbooks by the Taktik publishing house showed the lowest didactic equipment.

Abstract:
The textbook as a learning tool and learning resource contributes significantly to the effectiveness of the teaching or learning process itself, while at the same time promotes and facilitates independent learning. The main purpose of this research was to develop quality criteria after which textbooks for Chemistry in lower secondary school were evaluated. This paper presents the analysis of electrolyte chemistry pictorial material presented in chemistry textbooks. When it comes to validating textbooks in Slovenia, there are no unified criteria. The development of the criteria included an overview of the objectives set in the chemistry curriculum. Criteria were made for textbooks used in 8th and 9th grade of lower secondary school (students age 13–15 years). Chemistry textbooks were validated in the school year 2018/2019. When analysing criteria related to textbook representations, the sub-microscopic representations and hybrid representations are the least common features in the textbooks.

Abstract:
Evaluation criteria are adapted from previous textbook analyses on the nature of science (NOS) in general chemistry textbooks. These criteria are used to determine how certain NOS dimensions are mentioned and elaborated in those textbooks. Such dimensions emphasize that chemistry is (1) tentative, (2) empirical, (3) model-based, (4) inferential, (5) has technological products, (6) employs instrumentation, and (7) possesses social and societal dimensions. Three book chapters were read and evaluated: the first (on chemistry in general); the second (on atomic structure); and the sixth or seventh chapters (on the electronic structure of atoms). The relevant content in each textbook were rated using the following rubric: Satisfactory and Explicit (S, 2 points); Mention and Implicit (M, 1 point); and No Mention (N, 0 point). Silberberg (2009) has the highest score among the six textbooks with 12 points out of the maximum of 14. It was rated S for five criteria, the most among the six textbooks. Despite the presence of some N evaluations, all textbooks have mentioned some or all of the NOS dimensions formulated, resulting to M and S ratings. This study concludes that NOS dimensions are already present in various ways and varying degrees in each textbook.

Abstract This article presents the results of analysis of Czech and Russian textbooks intended for organic chemistry teaching at upper secondary schools. In principle, the estimation of textbook didactic capacity is based on decomposition of the textbook content into a set of different objects and their subsequent frequency analysis. In this study, three Czech textbooks and three Russian textbooks were characterized by particular and total didactic capacity coefficients. The indifference of the calculated didactic capacities was tested by chi-square statistics at a level of significance α = 0.05. The results show that the selected Czech and Russian textbooks are not significantly different.

Abstract Learning innovation of chemistry textbook to improve students achievement of senior high school students is explained. The study is carried out through development of innovative textbook, standardization to meet the standard textbook requirement based on BNSP and UNESCO standar, and implementation of the textbook as learning media in the class. Text book development is conducted to enrich chemistry materials based on the curriculum followed by innovation by integrating teaching method and learning media into the textboox. The developed textbook is the standarized by expert judgement. Finally the innovated textbook is then used as learning media on the teaching of chemistry to year XI senior high school students. The research showed that learning innovation into the textbook has successfully been done. Innovated textbook is found very effective to improve students achievemen in chemistry. Students achievement in experimental class which were taught by innovated textbook is found higher thatn that in control class that are taught by ordinary references. The students are interested to use innovated textbook. Innovated textbook is able to bring students to study independently and bring them moving from teacher centre learning into students centre learning

Abstract:
The criticism of the current language in school textbooks indicates the gravity of this problem in our environment and the need to solve it. The first step in approaching this problem is studying the reception of primary school textbooks. In the first part of the paper we discuss all primary school textbooks from the fifth to the eighth grade with regard to the frequency of textbook usage and the perception of the difficulty of textbook language. In the second part of the paper there is an additional analysis of history, geography, biology, physics and chemistry textbooks from the fifth to the eighth grade with regard to the reasons for which pupils find them difficult. This preliminary research comprised in total 120 pupils from an urban school, thirty from each fifth to eighth grade. We analyzed the textbooks of the Institute for Textbook Publishing and Teaching Aids, which are used most frequently in our educational practice, and hence can represent the general situation of the problem. Bearing in mind the limited size of the sample of pupils, the results are used only as an illustration and should encourage new studies on a more extensive sample. Textbook language is often difficult since it is mostly insufficiently comprehensible, longwinded and with many data. In natural sciences, physics and chemistry, pupils give up studying from the textbook. The textbooks in narrative subjects lead the way with respect to their usage, among which everybody finds history textbooks most difficult. Geography and biology textbooks were evaluated differently, depending on the grade and success of the pupils declaring themselves. The results present a guideline to the current and new writers of our textbooks, critics and publishing houses.

Abstract:
This study provides an analysis of selected aspects of the intended curriculum related to redox reactions as represented in secondary chemistry textbooks from the People’s Republic of China, with a special view also on Hong Kong, Shanghai, Taiwan, and the Chinese minority in Malaysia. This study reveals how chemistry textbooks deal with visual representations related to redox reactions and whether or not the visualizations provide any indication for the orientation of the intended curriculum, characterized by contexts suggested for chemistry learning. Specific criteria were derived from a literature review of the discussion on different levels of chemical representations and from a total of 346 visual representations related to redox reactions identified and analyzed from the textbooks. Based on the frequencies and levels of visual representations in the textbooks, this study showed that representations in textbooks from the People’s Republic of China mostly focus on the macro and macro-symbolic levels and indicate some aspects of everyday life as well as orientations towards industry and technology. The findings show that the textbook from Taiwan uses multiple macroscopic, submicroscopic, and symbolic representations to illustrate the redox reactions. The textbook from Hong Kong has a strong orientation along the content structure of chemistry, with mostly macro level representations. The textbook from the Chinese minority in Malaysia follows a strong structure-of-discipline orientation with limited visual support.

Abstract:
The (written) state curriculum is one of the cornerstones influencing education. Its specifically mediated by textbooks. In an open textbook market, the influence of the state curriculum is limited, and the main responsibility passes to individual schools or teachers. In order to understand education from the potential attainment of curriculum goals’ point of view, it is necessary to pay attention to the teachers’ textbook preferences. This research was focused on the field of lower-secondary chemistry education in Czechia, with special attention paid to the textbooks in use, their choice, and teachers’ perception of them. The data were gathered using a questionnaire distributed to a representative sample of 387 lower-secondary school chemistry teachers. The results showed that teachers favor traditional chemistry teaching conceptions. Most teachers stated that textbooks play a vital role for them when preparing lessons and new textbooks are mostly chosen by the most experienced teachers. Most teachers also expressed their preference for textbooks which contain subject-matter ordered according to the structure of chemistry, i.e. not adjusted for learners, as well as textbooks dominantly orientated towards the transmissive approach to education. Regarding the teachers’ perception of textbooks, potential limits were identified in implementing innovations in (chemical) education.

Abstract:
Open educational resources (OERs) provide a potential alternative to costly textbooks and can allow content to be edited and adapted to a variety of classroom environments. At the University of California, Davis, the OER “ChemWiki” project, as part of the greater STEMWiki Hyperlibrary, was developed to supplant traditional post-secondary chemistry textbooks. The effectiveness of using this OER was assessed by comparing two general chemistry classes, one using ChemWiki and one using a traditional textbook, during the spring quarter of 2014. Student performance was measured using common midterms, final, and a pre/post content exam. We also employed surveys, the Colorado Learning Attitudes about Science Survey (CLASS) for Chemistry, and a weekly time-on-task survey to quantify students’ attitudes and study habits. The effectiveness of the ChemWiki compared to a traditional textbook was examined using multiple linear regression analysis with a standard non-inferiority testing framework. Results show that the performance of students who were assigned readings from the ChemWiki section was non-inferior to the performance of students in the section who were assigned readings from the traditional textbook, indicating that the ChemWiki does not substantially differ from the standard textbook in terms of student learning outcomes. The results from the surveys also suggest that the two classes were similar in their beliefs about chemistry and minimal overall study time. These results indicate that the ChemWiki is a viable cost-saving alternative to traditional textbooks.

History school textbook on chemistry in the Russian Empire beginning in the first half of the 19th century. Which textbooks in chemistry were the first? Who were their authors? What do You know about first stable tutorials in 1930-ies? All of this is briefly reflected in proposed to Your attention. You will learn about the first criteria that guided the first authors of textbooks in 1803 and 1840 уу. You can read also about the pedagogical censorship, which appeared in 1869. Finally, You will be offered to current approaches to assessing the quality of the texts. The first formulation of this issue was started in the last decades of the 20th century. The author presents a comparative description of modern Russian textbooks, per-formed on the basis of the proposed criteria. Any teacher can evaluate themselves in accord-ance with these views and, on that basis, selective tutoring for his school. Seemingly has everything You need to create the ideal textbook, but it has not yet been established. At the same time in education appeared e-learning tools, including e-learning textbook. In addition to traditional types of information - text, tables, pictures etc. - electronic textbooks may use and new – speech, music, movie videos, animations and other colored. It is possible to use multiple document, presenting system information, hypertext links. Now, authors and consumers will face two challenges: the quality of these tests and their correlation with classical, i.e. paper. Thus arises the question of creation of ergonomic tutorial of the twenty-first century. Keywords: history textbooks, quality criteria for classic and electronic textbooks, ergonomic tutorial.

Abstract:
The aim of this study was to examine the representation of Nature of Science (NOS) aspects in 9th grade chemistry textbooks. Two textbooks nation-wide used are analyzed, one of them is written in Turkish the other in English. These textbooks were written according to 2008-2009 education program&rsquo
s curriculum. A qualitative oriented approach was employed and ethnographic content analysis was used as the methodological framework for this research as Irez (2006) has performed. Data were analyzed by means of books&rsquo
sentences. The results of the study revealed that both of two chemistry textbooks were inadequate in representing NOS aspects which are
1. Observation and inference are distinct entities of science, 2. Science is influenced by the social and cultural environment of the scientist, 3. Science is partly the product of human creativity and imagination, 4. Scientific knowledge is tentative, empirical and theory laden, 5. There exists a distinct, non-hierarchical relationship between scientific theories and laws, 6. &ldquo
There is no universal, recipe-like, method for doing science.&rdquo
The frequency of presence of each aspect in books was very low.

Abstract:
This thesis reports a series of studies into textbook authors', teachers' and students' use of analogies to improve students' understanding of abstract chemistry concepts. The five research problems considered: (a) the nature and extent of analogy use in textbooks; (b) the views of textbook authors and editors concerning analogies; (c) how, when, and why analogies were used by experienced chemistry teachers; (d) the development of an instrument to determine chemistry students' understanding of analogies; and (e) how chemistry students use the analogies presented as part of their chemistry instruction.Study One reports the findings of an investigation of ten chemistry textbooks used by Australian students for the nature and extent of analogy inclusion. The study found that, while used sparingly, analogies were employed more frequently in the beginning of textbooks and that the analogies used concrete analog domains to describe abstract target concepts. There was considerable use of pictorial-verbal analogies although simple analogies comprised a substantial proportion and stated limitations or warnings were infrequently employed.Study Two involved interviews with the authors of eight of the above mentioned textbooks to determine authors' views on analogies and their use in textbooks and teaching. The study identified a relationship between how frequently analogies were used by the author and what he or she considered to be the characteristics of a good chemistry teacher. Each author had a good understanding of the nature of analogy and each sought a flexible environment for its use - most arguing that analogies are better used by teachers than printed in textbooks. They appeared to favour analogies embedded in text or placed in margins rather than as post-synthesisers or advance organisers.Study Three reports an investigation into six chemistry teachers' use of ++
analogies in Western Australia and England. This study found that the teachers drew upon their experiences and professional reading as sources of the analogies that tended to be spontaneously used when they felt their students had not understood an explanation. The analogies tended to map functional attributes of abstract target concepts with some teachers using the blackboard to illustrate pictorial analogies and some including statements of limitations.Study Four describes the development of analogy maps - instruments used to determine the effectiveness with which students map given analogies. The iterative development process engaged classroom-based research methods to develop an instrument of value both for teaching and for school-related research. A rating system enables researchers to compare students' effectiveness at mapping analogies with variables such as analogy type.Studies Five and Six describe how a combination of interviews and analogy map surveys were used to investigate how students used analogies in chemistry. The study found that students felt more confident with pictorial-verbal analogies although they were not necessarily able to map these analogies better than verbal (only) analogies. Also, student mapping confidence appeared not to depend upon the level of enrichment supplied and added enrichment did not necessarily aid mapping performance. Further, the analogy maps were useful as a means to identify alternative conceptions and there was little evidence that the analogy maps contributed to the formation of alternative conceptions in the learners.The final chapter draws together and discusses the assertions made in all of the previous studies before considering the contribution of the thesis to theory building. The implications of the research are discussed and suggestions made for future research on analogies in chemistry education. The chapter ++
concludes by outlining examples of how and where the findings of this research have begun to be disseminated.

Resumo: Nessa pesquisa, procuro compreender tensões inerentes às políticas públicas voltadas para o livro didático de Química, realizadas no contexto do Programa Nacional do Livro Didático (PNLD), sob responsabilidade do Ministério da Educação. Inspirada pelo ciclo de políticas proposto por Stephen Ball, tenho como objetivo principal investigar os processos de elaboração e avaliação do livro didático realizados no PNLD e a influência da comunidade acadêmica de Ensino de Química nesse processo. Compreendendo as políticas curriculares como redes discursivas que se estabelecem em contextos marcados por permeabilidades, o quadro empírico da pesquisa se constituiu a partir de dois campos: 1. As entrevistas colhidas como narrativas de avaliadores participantes do processo e autores de livros didáticos e, 2. A análise de um conjunto de artigos publicados em periódicos e eventos de Ensino de Química/Ciências e suas possíveis influências nas obras didáticas no período compreendido entre o PNLEM 2007 e o PNLD 2012. A partir das entrevistas, mônadas (BENJAMIN, 1994) foram elaboradas, potencializando diálogos entre a avaliação do livro didático de Química e a influência da comunidade acadêmica neste processo. A partir da análise das mônadas, foi possível perceber elementos de tensão na fala dos professores avaliadores e autores, entre eles destaco a alusão ao conhecimento químico escolar e ao conhecimento químico de referência, sendo que este último pode ser considerado como tentativa de legitimar o posicionamento dos avaliadores e autores dos livros. Além da comunidade acadêmica, outras instâncias produziram efeitos deixando marcas no processo de elaboração e avaliação do livro didático, como Ministério da Educação, grupos editoriais e escolas. Dessa forma, o livro didático pode ser considerado como um híbrido resultante dos discursos recontextualizados advindos desses e de outros contextos. Sendo assim, a autoria das políticas passa a ser plural, diversos sujeitos e instâncias delas participam e a constroem
Abstract: In this research, I seek to understand inherent tensions in public political applied to Chemistry textbook, conducted in the context of the National Textbook Program (PNLD), under the Ministry of Education. Inspired by the political cycle proposed by Stephen Ball, I have as main objective to investigate the processes of elaboration and evaluation of textbooks performed in PNLD and the influence of academic community of Chemistry Teaching in that process. Understanding curriculum policy as discursive networks that are established in contexts marked by permeabilities, the empirical framework of the research consisted from two fields: 1. The interviews collected as narratives of evaluators that participated in the process and authors of textbooks and, 2. The analysis of a series of papers published in journals and conferences of Chemistry/Science Teaching and its possible influences in the textbooks in the period between PNLEM 2007 and PNLD 2012. From the interviews, monads (Benjamin, 1994) were developed, enhancing dialogue between the evaluation of Chemistry textbook and the influence of the academic community in this process. From the analysis of monads, it was possible to see elements of tension in the speech of evaluators teachers and authors, among them is highlighted the allusion to the school chemical knowledge and to reference chemical knowledge, being the latter considered as an attempt to legitimize the position of evaluators and authors of the books. Apart from the academic community, other institutions produced effects leaving marks in the drafting and revision of the textbook, such as the Ministry of Education, editorial groups and schools. Thus, the textbook can be considered as a hybrid resulting from recontextualized discourses arising from these and other contexts. Thereby, authorship policies becomes plural, many subjects and instances participate and build it

Abstract:
The aim of this study is to investigate how and in which form students come in contact with practical applications in the upper secondary school course Chemistry B. The study is based upon the assumption that all learning is situated in a social environment. The theoretical framework is the design theory perspective, which entails an assumption that the pedagogical tools affect the knowledge content. The empiric materials in the study are collected through three methods: textbook analysis, classroom observations and questionnaires. Two groups of students and their teachers were observed during a section of the relevant course. The textbook analysis focuses upon the same course section in the textbooks of the two groups and compares these books with the relevant section in a third textbook. In addition, the two student groups responded to a questionnaire on their attitudes toward the subject of chemistry subject linked to its applications at a society level. The study shows that there are significant differences between the strategies which teachers and textbooks use in order to present and visualise practical applications of chemical theory. The context strategy is based upon the students’ own surroundings and uses real life application as a tool for the presentation of the principles of chemistry. According to this strategy, the knowledge content should be organised in such a way that the chemical principles are used to explain our surroundings. The process and product strategy, on the other hand focuses upon a scientific approach, in which science as a process and scientific products are most important. With this strategy, applications are used to illustrate and exemplify the knowledge content. The conclusion of this study is that neither different forms of presentation nor the presence of practical applications affect the students' attitude towards the subject. Furthermore, practical applications are not a significant part of the students' learning strategies.

Abstract:
According to previous research, students show difficulties in learning redox reactions. By the historical development different redox models exist to explain redox reactions, the oxygen model, the hydrogen model, the electron model and the oxidation number model. This thesis reports about three studies concerning conceptions held by secondary school students of redox reactions. A textbook analysis is also included in the thesis. The first study was an investigation of the students’ use of redox models in inorganic contexts, their use of the activity series of metals, and the students’ ability to transfer redox knowledge. Then the students’ work with an open-ended biochemical task, where the students had access of the textbook was studied. The students talk about redox reactions, the questions raised by the students, what resources used to answer the questions and what kind of talk developed were investigated. A textbook analysis based on chemistry books from Sweden and one book from England was performed. The redox models used as well as the dealing with redox related learning difficulties was studied. Finally, the students’ conceptions about redox in inorganic, organic and biochemistry after completed chemistry courses were studied. The results show that the students were able to use the electron model as a tool to explain inorganic redox reactions and the mutuality of oxidation and reduction was fundamental. The activity series of metals became a tool for the prediction of reducing agent in some reactions. Most of the students rejected that oxygen is a prerequisite for a redox reaction. In the biochemical task the resource most used to answer the raised questions were the students’ consultation of the textbook – together or individually. Most questions resulted in short answers and the majority of these questions were answered. Questions concerning redox were analysed by the students and integrated into a chemical context but they could neither identify the substances oxidised or reduced nor couple the concepts to transfer of hydrogen atoms. The majority of these redox questions became unanswered. The textbook helped the students to structure a poster as well as to answer basic chemistry questions. For questions about organic and biochemical redox, the book was of no help. The textbook analysis showed that all historical redox models are used. Different models are used in inorganic, organic and biochemistry. The mutuality of oxidation and reduction is treated differently in subject areas. The textbooks did not help the reader linking the different redox models that were used. Few redox-related learning difficulties are addressed in the books. After completed chemistry courses the students had major problems to justify a redox reaction explained by transfer of hydrogen atoms both in the organic and biochemistry examples.

Abstract:
Many students currently entering college are able to solve mathematical problems but often do not understand the chemistry concepts underlying their calculations. High school chemistry teachers from Texas and the United States (US) were surveyed as to what topics they teach in their chemistry classes. A subset of Texas teachers was also interviewed about their instruction. The survey indicated that less-experienced Texas teachers are omitting a number of topics from their chemistry instruction, as compared to more experienced teachers. No differences were seen for those topics among US teachers. Chemistry textbooks from 1930 to the current 2002 Texas state adoptions were analyzed for inclusion of these topics. The only textbooks that were missing topics were from the 1930s. All others contained the topics. In general, textbooks have been increasing numbers of questions and problems for each topic, with the number of quantitative problems increasing at a greater rate than qualitative problems. Analysis of interview transcripts revealed that the main reason for omission of topics by less-experienced Texas chemistry teachers is that these topics are not assessed on the Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills science exam. Omitted topics were both qualitative and quantitative; the common factor is that they are not tested. School administrators reportedly reinforce this practice. Archival data regarding textbook usage by general chemistry students showed that students' course grades are not correlated to the amount of time they spend using their textbook. With topics included in textbooks, and no relationship between textbook usage and student grades, observed changes in chemistry courses must be due to changes in classroom instruction. With new course standards adopted by Texas for chemistry and the development of end-of-course exams, these changes should produce graduates who understand chemistry concepts as well as they solve mathematical chemistry problems. Repeating this study in 5 years may show that increasing the amount of chemistry tested will produce students entering college with a better conceptual background in chemistry.

Tais imagens, bem como seu contexto, foram analisadas sob duas perspectivas: o que se pretende comunicar, através da categorização das imagens frente ao tipo de conteúdo veiculado, e como tal comunicação é realizada, utilizando-se da classificação dos signos proposta pela semiótica peirceana. Em relação ao primeiro aspecto, percebeu-se que as imagens referentes ao \"Cotidiano\" e \"Laboratório e Experimentação\" predominam em ambas as disciplinas, com destaque para \"Gráficos\", nos livros de Física e \"Tabelas\", nos livros de Química. Quanto ao tipo de imagens apresentadas pelos livros há predominância de Fotografias e Desenhos, sendo que há mais desenhos nos livros de Física e mais Fotografias em livros de Química. Analisando a função das imagens presentes nos livros, pode-se inferir que elas são usadas principalmente para exemplificação e contextualização dos assuntos trabalhados, bem como representação dos aparatos usados para experimentação. Tendo esse uso, as imagens são majoritariamente sin-signos indiciais, pois representam um objeto existente. Há, no entanto, imagens que apresentam caráter mais icônico, uma vez que buscam representar e demonstrar o comportamento das partículas submicroscópicas. Uma vez que essa iconicidade reflete um tipo de postura adotado pelos autores do livro, percebeu-se que os livros de Química tendem a ter posturas mais realistas que os livros de Física, uma vez que foi observado a presença de mais imagens icônicas, que representam e \"materializam\" as partículas presentes nessas representações.
This work aims to contribute to the reflections on the philosophy of Chemistry, those related to the strategies and characteristics used in the communication of their knowledge. As a research object are the images used in the content of discussions that are covered in textbooks of Physics and Chemistry approved by the National Textbook Program 2015 (PNLD - 2015), analyzed in the light of Peirce\'s semiotics. Such images and their context were analyzed from two perspectives: what you want to communicate through the categorization of images of the type of content posted, and as such communication is carried out, using the classification of the proposed signs by Peirce\'s semiotics. Regarding the first point, it was noticed that the images for the Daily Life and Laboratory and Experimentation predominate in both disciplines, especially charts in Physics Books and tables in Chemistry books. Regarding the type of images displayed by the books there is a predominance of Photographs and Drawings, there are more designs in Physics books and more photos in Chemistry books. Analyzing the function of these images in the books, it can be inferred that they are mainly used for exemplification and contextualization of the issues worked as well as representation of the objects used for experimentation. With this use, the images are mostly indexical sin-signs, they represent an existing object. There are, however, images that have more iconic character, since seek to represent and show the behavior of submicroscopic particles. Since this iconicity reflects a posture adopted by the authors of the book, the Chemistry books tend to have more realistic positions that Physics books, as it was observed the presence of the most iconic images representing and \"materialize\" the particles present in these representations.

Abstract:
A teoria dualista, estruturada pelo químico sueco Jöns Jacob Berzelius, foi bastante utilizada durante a primeira metade do século XIX, mas foi gradativamente abandonada à medida que passou a não dar conta dos fenômenos observados especialmente para os compostos orgânicos, cujo estudo avançava à época. No entanto, a presença de elementos dessa teoria em livros didáticos de química atuais foi apontada por pesquisadores da área de Ensino de Ciências. Tendo em vista o papel do livro didático na educação científica, e que a ausência de conceitos desatualizados é critério utilizado pelo Ministério da Educação para a seleção das obras didáticas utilizadas por alunos e professores na rede pública de ensino, investigamos o que foi a teoria dualista de Berzelius e em qual período esteve vigente, de forma a fundamentar a busca de elementos dessa teoria em livros didáticos de química para o Ensino Médio. Para tanto, analisamos fontes históricas primárias e secundárias, à luz da epistemologia de Canguilhem e de referenciais contemporâneos da historiografia da ciência, por meio da análise textual discursiva, de forma a produzir um estudo de caso histórico que permitisse caracterizar a teoria dualista e sua relevância em seu contexto original e na atualidade. A partir dessa caracterização, procuramos identificar possíveis reminiscências dessa teoria nos quatro livros didáticos de química aprovados pelo Programa Nacional do Livro Didático para 2015. Constatamos, em três deles, a presença de termos e conceitos que remetem à teoria dualista de Berzelius, de forma hibridizada a conceitos de teorias atuais. Discutimos algumas implicações dessa constatação para o ensino de química e possibilidades de abordagem didática à luz do estudo de caso produzido.
The dualistic theory, structured by Swedish chemist Jöns Jacob Berzelius, was widely used during first half of the 19th century. As the study of organic compounds advanced, the dualistic theory was gradually abandoned, as it was not capable to explain the new observed phenomena. However, Science Teaching researchers pointed to the presence of elements of this theory in current chemistry textbooks. Considering the role of textbooks in scientific education, and that the absence of outdated concepts is a criterion utilized by the Brazilian Ministry of Education to select textbooks used by students and teachers in public schools, this dissertation aimed at investigating what was Berzelius\'s dualistic theory and in which period it was considered as valid, to substantiate the search of elements of this theory in high school chemistry textbooks. Primary and secondary historical sources were analyzed, in the light of Canguilhem\'s epistemology and contemporary historiography of science, by means of discursive textual analysis. Such analysis resulted in a historical case study characterizing the dualistic theory and evaluating its relevance in its original context and in the present. From this characterization, we attempted to identify possible reminiscences of this theory in the four books approved by the Brazilian Textbook National Program for 2015. Terms and concepts that refer to Berzelius\'s dualistic theory were found hybridized with concepts from present-day theories in three of the four books. Some implications of this finding to chemistry teaching and possible didactic approaches to the produced case study were discussed.

Abstract:
Esta dissertação se propôs a investigar o livro didático no Ensino Superior, através do tripé alunos-biblioteca-professores. O objetivo geral do trabalho foi pesquisar qual a contribuição dos livros didáticos universitários na formação profissional dos alunos dos cursos de Química, Engenharia Química e Engenharia de Materiais da UFRGS, vinculados à disciplina de Química Geral Teórica. Para alcance do objetivo, os interesses específicos da pesquisa foram a visão dos alunos, a concepção dos professores ministrantes da disciplina e o reflexo no uso do acervo da Biblioteca do Instituto de Química. Todos esses interesses tiveram como base a relação de livros citados, ou seja, a bibliografia recomendada no Plano de Ensino da disciplina. A pesquisa adotou o método misto (quali-quantitativo) e utilizou três tipos de coleta de dados ao longo do trabalho: 1) levantamento de dados estatísticos da circulação dos livros na biblioteca; 2) questionário com perguntas abertas e fechadas dirigidas aos alunos; 3) entrevista realizada com os docentes. Após essa etapa, as informações foram analisadas e descritas em três artigos, onde cada um apresenta os resultados de acordo com o tipo de método escolhido. Os resultados das análises descritivas quantitativas indicam que na Biblioteca do Instituto de Química os livros mais emprestados são os listados nas categorias da bibliografia essencial e básica, especialmente o livro Princípios de Química de Peter Atkins. Na abordagem qualitativa, os resultados descritivos advindos das respostas dos alunos ao questionário, sugerem que eles preferem livros com linguagem textual acessível e com imagens de boa qualidade, além de utilizarem efetivamente os livros recomendados como apoio para seus estudos. A intervenção junto aos docentes resultou em um texto detalhado e fundamentado na Análise Textual Discursiva proposta pelos autores Moraes e Galiazzi. Os enunciados e categorias emergentes estabelecem a concepção positiva dos professores quanto ao uso e indicação dos livros recomendados aos alunos. Ao final, é possível concluir que os livros didáticos universitários são úteis ao seu fim, auxiliam na compreensão do conteúdo desenvolvido em sala de aula e têm seu acesso facilitado via Biblioteca da Universidade.
This dissertation proposed to investigate the didactic book in Higher Education, through the tripod students-library-teachers. The general objective of this work was to investigate the contribution of university textbooks in the professional training of students of Chemistry, Chemical Engineering and Materials Engineering at UFRGS, attending to General Theoretical Chemistry. In order to reach the objective, the specific interests of the research were the students' vision, the conception of the teaching professors of the discipline, and the reflexes on the use of the library of the Institute of Chemistry. All these interests were based on the list of books cited, that is, the bibliography recommended in the discipline's teaching plan. The research adopted the mixed method (qualitative-quantitative) and used three types of data collection throughout the work: 1) statistical data collection of the circulation of books in the library; 2) a questionnaire with open and closed questions addressed to students; 3) interview with teachers. After this step, the information were analysed and described in three articles, where each presents the results according to the type of method chosen. The results of the quantitative descriptive analysis indicate that in the Library the most borrowed books are those listed in the categories of essential and basic bibliography, especially Peter Atkins' Principles of Chemistry. In the qualitative approach, the descriptive results derived from the students' responses to the questionnaire suggest that they prefer books with accessible textual language and good quality images, as well as effectively using the books recommended as support for their studies. The intervention with the teachers resulted in a detailed text based on Discursive Textual Analysis, as proposed by the authors Moraes and Galiazzi. Emerging statements and categories established the positive conception of teachers regarding the use and indication of recommended books to students. At the end, it is possible to conclude that the university textbooks are useful to their purpose, help in the understanding of the content developed in the classroom, and have their access facilitated via University Library.

Abstract:
This research deals with students’ abilities to read chemistry textbook images about dispersed systems. Secondary school students were included as the research participants, and their abilities to propose the titles of the realistic, conventional, and hybrid textbook images about dispersed systems, were analyzed. Additionally, their written interpretations about images contents were also analyzed. The collected data provided information about students’ misunderstandings about dispersed systems. These misunderstandings, some of which are the original outcome of this research, provided the significant results. In addition, it was found that students had the most difficulties with reading realistic textbook images. Namely, they relied on what they literally saw on the realistic image (i.e. photography) without providing proper connection with chemical contents about dispersed systems. Keywords: visual representations, reading images, images types, general chemistry.
