Popis: In this paper we aim to identify communication models of science and technology in activities of scientific divulgation developed through lectures, as extension project, at two state public schools of the Recife Metropolitan Region –PE over 2015, and analyze implication for the technologic and scientific literacy of students. For the analysis of the results, we selected the lectures named "Science, technology and a sustainable society" and "Science, technology and environment conflicts: the Suape case", and we considered the communication models of science and technology as analytical categories. In the analysis conducted were predominantly identified contextual communication model, lay expertise, and public participation. In this direction, the science divulgation activities constituted as a tool for the technologic and scientific literacy of students at the time the lectures contributed, for example, to understand the science and technology as human activities that influence and suffer influences of society.
