SUMMARY:

Experimentation and investigation, understood in a broad sense, can be incorporated into the teaching of natural sciences from early childhood onwards. In this sense, it is essential that the initial teacher training discuss these dimensions from the realization of reflections and experiences that dialogue with the practices that occur on the school floor. One of them concerns the do-it-yourself culture, called maker culture, and considered in this study in association with the approach to solving science problems, and taking activity theory as one of the theoretical and methodological references. This work aims to evaluate the possibilities of an interventional formative experience focused on the elaboration and resolution of science problems, with characteristics of the maker culture. The study is of a qualitative nature of the participant research type. The methodological procedures adopted were: elaboration of the interventional formative experience, the implementation of the experience and the analysis of discursive productions and interactions, during the activities carried out by the students in the classroom. The research participants were nineteen students of the Licentiate in Pedagogy course at the Universidade Federal Rural de Pernambuco. The proposed activities are connected with the immediate reality and with an ecosystem linked to the local economy and cultural scene: the mangrove. The analysis categories involved elements of the maker culture, invention and creativity, aspects related to mediation processes in activities and elements, principles and contradictions present in activity systems. The results indicate that problematizing reality is an interesting way to work with the resolution of real problems in initial teacher training. Such a reality is, in itself, full of contradictions and brings up discussions related to the maker culture. The problems presented by the students, despite being embryonic, have characteristics of authentic problems. When invited to think from the point of view of invention, the students presented interesting solutions to the problems faced by the fishing communities of Recife, Pernambuco. As for the mediation process, the most frequent scaffolding corresponded to problematizations around the search for the establishment or reestablishment of the object of the activity. Finally, the manifestation of the most frequent contradiction was those of a primary order in the poles of consummation and production in the activity systems.
