Evolution is one of the most controversial areas of biology, especially Human Evolution, where outside the academic environment the subject is still very reluctant, mainly due to social and religious factors. Added to this aspect, the literature points out that the lack of information among the general population on this subject is quite remarkable. In order to deconstruct the myths surrounding evolution, the aim of this paper was to verify the prior knowledge of high school students about Biological Evolution as well as to spread the current concepts on this subject, especially Human Evolution. To assess the prior knowledge of students, a questionnaire containing closed-ended questions to high school students was used. Subsequently, through exhibitions, the real concepts of biological evolution are presented, using posters; slides; human skull and playful learning resources. This act is very pertinent, because the evaluation of the questionnaires showed that a large percentage of students still have misconceptions about the evolution. Putting the human being as the most evolved species, and consequently imagining that evolution is directed, seeking a perfect species. At this point the use of teaching resources helped to improve understanding of biological evolution.
