Orientadora: Natália da Silva e Silva Silveira. 2024. 17 f.

Acesso em:.https://bdm.ufpa.br/jspui/handle/prefix/7168The project "A Microscopic View: Elementary and Higher Education" is part of the extension initiatives of the Federal University of Pará (UFPA). It aims to provide students from public schools with a glimpse into practical activities essential for science education. However, only 14% of public schools in Castanhal-PA have laboratories that allow students to gain a better and more in-depth understanding of the subjects. This research aims to spark interest in science and promote the sociocultural inclusion of students. Periodically, the project team hosted students at the Institute of Veterinary Medicine, where they were divided into groups to visit different sectors in an organized manner. Additionally, at the end of each visit, questionnaires were distributed to evaluate the impact of the activities. According to the data from the questionnaires, there is a noticeable increase in students' interest in science and learning. Furthermore, there is a better understanding among students regarding laboratory practices and responsible pet ownership. Therefore, it is evident that the promotion of science and education was effective, generating greater student interest and positively encouraging them to pursue a better future through education.Acesso AbertoExtensão universitáriaEnsino fundamentalMedicina VeterináriaLaboratórioCNPQ::CIENCIAS AGRARIAS::MEDICINA VETERINARIATrabalho de Curso - Graduação - Artigo
