RESUMO

Abstract Taking as framework the importance of addressing conceptions about Nature of Science (NoS) and approaching the study of authentic science (scientific practice as is actually carried out in laboratories and other areas), we analyze the implementation of a didactic sequence using an autobiographic narration of an investigation about dengue. The process can be characterized as action research, because it was carried out in successive cycles of planning, implementation, analysis and reflection. The sequence was implemented at the university level and allowed approaching various facets of NoS: trajectories of entry into the system and actors; scientific methodology; construction of hypotheses and development of experimental designs; processes of scientific paper writing; editorial fashions; and science as socially and politically embedded. The proposal appears to have promoted changes in the representations of the students and the identification of biases in their previous scientific training.
