Resource Letter for the teaching and learning of Cosmology

This work presents a Survey of Didactic Resources (Resource Letter) for the teaching of Cosmology in Portuguese language, inspired by similar initiatives published by the American Journal of Physics continuously published in the last five decades. The texts were collected from a selection of Theses and MSc works, journal articles, Proceedings of events and other specialized publications that feature full text availability. We selected 205 research works, later organized according to the Cosmology subjects and further classified according to the education level and thematic focus. The idea is that this collected material could act as a database for the Brazilian production in the last 30 years, to support the educational work in the area, as a useful basis for the construction of didactic sequences and ad hoc activities according to the specific needs of each professor. For this purpose, a selection of works for each subject and a critical appraisal of the literature and teaching in general were introduced.
