- Abstract
The presence of the terms nanoscience and nanotechnology have appeared more frequently in everyday life and numerous debates are held with a focus on this knowledge, which has been transforming the scientific and technological reality today. In this perspective, this research presents results of an investigation that aimed to identify and analyze teaching practices developed in the approach of nanoscience and nanotechnology in the Degree in Physics offered by the Federal University of Maranhão (UFMA) and Federal University of Santa Catarina (UFSC). The methodological focus was centered on the qualitative approach, supported by two instruments for data collection, documental research and semi-structured interview, which were treated from the perspective of Content Analysis. Data analysis reveals that the teaching of this subject has been developed essentially in a theoretical way, at a superficial level. It is observed as difficulties imposed in the teaching of science at the nanoscale, the absence of didactic material with easy-to-understand language and outdated curricula.
