Traditional biology teaching often results in poor learning of concepts and processes, given the abstraction and complexity of the topics covered in this area. The way biology has been taught in basic education, using memorization and reproduction of data, conflicts with the ideal scientific literacy that schools should provide. This book discusses the construction of some concepts reflected in the learning and consequent assimilation of content, promoting reflections on alternative ways forward.
