Abstract
In
this paper, we describe aspects of the “Media in the Service of Education”
project which was implemented based in two (sub) projects “Physics for
Everyone: Science Education on the Radio” and “Education News on the Radio”.
The project “Physics for Everyone: Science Education on the Radio” proposed to
disseminate science education by radio to the public least served by the
Internet, and the proposed project “Education News on the Radio” is to share
with serving teachers successful experiences of coping with difficulties in
learning and performance in the field of exact and natural sciences. In this
perspective, the “Media in the Service of Education” project aims to disseminate
initiatives to improve the quality (“best practices”) of the teaching of exact
and natural sciences, covering municipalities located within a radius of 150 km
around Maringá (Paraná State, Brazil), comprising the Metropolitan Region of
Maringá and northwest of Paraná State (Brazil). By way of illustration, in
“Education News on the Radio,” using the signal of Radio UEM FM, the project’s
activities of target Paraná municipalities with a low human development index
(HDI).
