FILM ART AND CONVERSATION CIRCLE AS AN LEARNING STRATEGIES IN BIOETHICS FOR COLLECTIVE SUBJECTS

Abstract

Films are important tools of communication, expression, and perception of the world and important tools in the teaching and learning process. The present article aimed to analyze the discourses that emerged from the cinematographic work, having the conversation circle as a strategy for problematizing bioethics in the work process of teachers, students, and health workers. This is a descriptive study with a qualitative approach, with data collected from an interview guided by a semi-structured script. Faculty, students, and health workers participated in the study. Data analysis based on the content analysis technique, supported by the Atlas.ti version 9.0 software, enables the identification of two thematic categories: film art as a strategy for bioethical reflection and bioethical implications in teachers’ daily practices, students, and health professionals. The results revealed that the use of cinematography engenders a new formulation of the teaching-learning process, allowing participants to reflect on everyday ethical dilemmas. It’s concluded that it’s imperative to broaden debates with bioethical approaches, anchored to cinematographic art, as an effective method to stimulate reflective thinking.
