Expansion of the Target Audience

The decision to expand the target audience for the course “Science is 10” reflects the need to train a larger number of teachers, recognizing the importance of solid science education from the early school years to high school.

By including teachers from the early years and specific subjects in high school, CAPES seeks to promote an integrated and continuous approach to science teaching, ensuring that students have a consistent and in-depth foundation throughout their school journey.

Course Details and Objectives

The course “Science is 10” is a lato sensu postgraduate program offered in a distance learning format (EaD), providing flexibility for teachers to balance their studies with their professional activities.

Integrated into the More Science in School Program, the course is the result of a partnership between CAPES, the Ministry of Education (MEC), the Ministry of Science, Technology, and Innovation (MCTI), and the National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq).

Its main goal is to train educators to develop innovative and effective pedagogical practices, stimulating student interest and understanding in scientific disciplines.

Offer of Spots and Participating Institutions

According to Public Notice No. 25/2023 from the Open University of Brazil (UAB), 6,810 spots for the course “Science is 10” are planned until 2026, distributed across the entire national territory.

The offer is made by a network of 42 educational institutions, ensuring coverage and diversity in teacher training.

Some of these institutions are still accepting registrations for the first semester of 2025, offering opportunities for those interested in improving their pedagogical practices in science education.

Institutions with Open Registrations

Among the institutions that still have open registration deadlines, the following stand out:

State University of Maranhão (UEMA): Registrations until February 19, 2025.
Federal Institute of Bahia (IFBA): Registrations until February 26, 2025.

Federal University of the Jequitinhonha and Mucuri Valleys (UFVJM): Registrations until March 9, 2025.

Requirements for Participation

To enroll in the course “Science is 10”, candidates must be actively teaching in the classroom, as the course requires the development of pedagogical projects aimed at improving science classes.

Although priority is given to public education professionals, private school teachers are also eligible to participate.

This inclusion seeks to reach a larger number of educators, promoting excellence in science teaching across different educational contexts.

Benefits of Specialization

Participating in the course “Science is 10” offers various benefits to educators, including:

Quality Training: The course is offered by renowned institutions and integrates the system of the Open University of Brazil (UAB), ensuring excellence in training.
Flexibility: The EaD format allows teachers to study according to their schedules, making it easier to balance work and studies.
Direct Impact on Teaching Practice: The pedagogical projects developed during the course aim to enhance the quality of science education in schools, promoting more dynamic and effective practices.
