Abstract

Contents about Botany have been worked in several media, especially in video lessons available on YouTube. They seek to make knowledge in the area more attractive, in addition to motivating and assisting students in the teaching process. Thus, this work evaluated the contents of bryophytes intended for basic teaching in video lessons found on the YouTube platform with regard to the reliability of the information presented. Using keywords, associated with inclusion or exclusion criteria in the search, 32 videos were viewed, of which 11 were selected and evaluated based on the perspective of textbooks and specialized bibliographies. The analysis revealed a lack of important information, such as ecological, economic and classification aspects, the latter being the most outdated. However, morphological characteristics of mosses and reproductive characteristics in bryophytes, in general, were very well worked on by the authors, since they are common data in textbooks. In this sense, the present study contributes in a pioneering way in orienting the producers of contents, specifically bryophytes, encouraging botanists to participate more and more in the elaboration of audiovisual didactic resources.
