Atividades de pesquisa na graduação: percepção dos alunos do curso de Terapia Ocupacional da Universidade do Estado do Pará
Resumo
Com o objetivo de investigar a percepção dos alunos do curso de Terapia Ocupacional sobre as atividades de pesquisa na graduação e realizar um diagnóstico acerca das habilidades investigativas nestes alunos, 46 discentes responderam a dois questionários com perguntas abertas e fechadas. Os dados revelam que as habilidades investigativas relacionadas com o planejamento, o processo da investigação e a redação do texto final da pesquisa encontram-se pouco desenvolvidas. Conclui-se que muitas ações são necessárias para a efetivação da pesquisa na graduação, tais como: o desenvolvimento de uma cultura de pesquisa dentro da universidade, o acesso às referências bibliográficas atualizadas e Internet, a capacitação docente, a sistematização do processo ensino-aprendizagem, a participação ativa dos alunos e de toda comunidade acadêmica neste contexto.

AbstractThe purpose of this study was to investigate student’s perception of the course in Occupational Therapy about the activities of research on graduation and realize a diagnosis around the research abilities in these students. students responded to two questionnaires containing forced and free- response questions. The data revealed that research abilities related to planning and the investigative process; however abilities involved in writing the final research report were poorly developed. In conclusion, a number of actions are necessary to improve research skills in graduations: the development of a “research culture” within the university, access to bibliographic sources at the library and on the internet; qualified teachers, a more systematic teaching-learning process, and the active participation of students in academic research.
