Abstract

The present study focuses on the analysis of two educational applications aimed at teaching botany in high school, they were created in the application factory, being a free Brazilian digital platform. ClikBotânica, addresses plant morphology, and Botânica na Palma da Mão, addresses plant ecology. The research was structured from qualitative and quantitative principles. The methodological process was carried out in three classes of the second year of high school (A, B, C) for the pedagogical interventions, each containing 30 students, totaling 90 students. The previous questionnaire regarding the morphology and ecology content showed that students have a greater affinity with the morphology-related content. In ecology, there was a great difficulty on the part of the students in solving the questions. After using the application, there was a significant reduction in wrong questions, especially those related to plant ecology. Thus, it is noted that the use of Information and Communication Technologies - ICTs in the classroom is something favorable in the teaching of botany.
