description The research is based on the proposal of Fonseca and Martínez (2020), in which the construction of the biology teacher’s professional knowledge is presented as the integration/ transformation of five types of knowledge: disciplinary, didactic, of life history, of experience, and of context. The methodology is based on the analysis and interpretation of a case study of a practicing teacher at a declarative level. As a result of the research, it is evident that,since the teacher integrated and transformed her knowledge, three new and unique types of knowledge emerged: teaching evolution as a vehicle in the appropriation of a responsible human attitude towards the conservation of species; teaching and understanding biological evolution as a mechanism for mitigating attitudes associated with male chauvinism, xenophobia, and sexual discrimination; and teaching evolution and decision-making in theconstruction of critical citizenship.

The methodology is based on the analysis and interpretation of a case study of a practicing teacher at a declarative level.

La investigación se desarrolla a partir de la propuesta de Fonseca y Martínez (2020), en la que se presenta la construcción del conocimiento profesional del profesor de biología como la integración/transformación de cinco conocimientos: disciplinar, didáctico, de la historia de vida, de la experiencia y del contexto. La metodología se basa en el análisis e interpretación en el nivel declarativo de un estudio de caso de una docente en ejercicio. Como resultado de la investigación, se evidencia que, producto de la integración/transformación de los conocimientos en la docente, emergen tres nuevos y singulares conocimientos: la enseñanza de la evolución como un vehículo en la apropiación de una actitud responsable del ser humano sobre la conservación de las especies; la enseñanza y la comprensión de la evolución biológica como mecanismo de mitigación de actitudes asociadas al machismo, la xenofobia y la discriminación sexual; y la enseñanza de la evolución y la toma de decisiones en la construcción de una ciudadanía crítica. A pesquisa é baseada na proposta de Fonseca e Martínez (2020), na qual a construção do conhecimento profissional do professor de biologia é apresentada como a integração/ transformação de cinco tipos de conhecimento: disciplinar, didático, da história da vida, da experiência e do contexto. A metodologia é baseada na análise e na interpretação a nível declarativo de um estudo de caso de uma professora em exercício. Como resultado da pesquisa, é evidente que, desde que a professora integrou e transformou seu conhecimento, três novos e únicos conhecimentos emergem: o ensino da evolução como veículo na apropriação de uma atitude humana responsável em relação à conservação das espécies; o ensino e a compreensão da evolução biológica como mecanismo para mitigar atitudes associadas ao machismo, à xenofobia e à discriminação sexual; e o ensino da evolução e a tomada de decisões na construção de uma cidadania crítica.
