Métodos contraceptivos e infecções sexualmente transmissíveis: conhecimento dos estudantes da escola estadual de uberlândia (museu) e impactos de uma abordagem do estágio.

Abstract

The study conducted at Escola Estadual de Uberlândia (MUSEU) investigates the perceptions of elementary and high school students regarding contraceptive methods and sexually transmitted infections, assessing their prior knowledge and the impacts of a pedagogical proposal implemented during the internship. This is a qualitative case study aiming to identify the students' prior knowledge on the topic and analyze changes resulting from the pedagogical intervention. The research was carried out using a questionnaire consisting of ten yes/no questions. The analysis of the results revealed that, although students faced difficulties with certain topics, the pedagogical intervention had a positive impact, as evidenced by the students' improved performance in the post-intervention questionnaire. These findings highlight the importance of approaches focused on sexual education and underscore, considering the varying results among different classes, how the teacher-student relationship can influence the teaching and learning process.
