Abstract
Abstract Chronobiology studies biological rhythms, the sleep/wake cycle is a rhythm much analyzed in humans. It is a multidisciplinary teaching area, which disseminates scientific studies of interest to education. In this paper, we aim to share our experience in teaching Chronobiology to educators. For this, we offered eight outreach courses at Escola de Artes Ciências e Humanidade (EACH/USP). The methodology included exhibition techniques, practical activities, and a workshop. We used a questionnaire and a critical report as an evaluation. Of the 73 participants (54 women), 35.8 ± 13.0 years, 95.8% recommended the course because it brought a new conception about the functions of sleep and with applications in personal and professional life. Thus, we suggest that the Chronobiology should be part of educators’ training.
