In the context of a formative process of educators of sciences in the municipality of Santa Luzia/BA, the contributions of the Thematic Network in the construction of a Thematic Cycle were investigated and their role was analyzed in the development of the culture of participation. In order to do so, the information obtained during the Thematic Research process carried out in the mentioned municipality was rediscussed, in which the following categories emerged: a) the cause-consequence relationship of the culture of silence and b) The culture of participation as political-epistemological alternative. Among the results, the cyclic-dialectic relationship between the cause and the consequence of the limit situations is highlighted, which are articulated to the political and epistemological needs of social organization. These aspects were problematized and systematized in a Teaching Plan through the Thematic Cycle, corroborating for the effectiveness of the culture of participation in STS education.Downloads
