Investigando as potencialidades de um laboratório experimental itinerante na construção do conhecimento: o problema da queda dos corpos e a interação com fluidos

Abstract

This work presents a proposal that advances on the possibilities of the ERE "Emergency Remote Teaching", proposing an "Itinerant Experimental Laboratory", which allows the student to develop experimental investigative activities at home, based on the presupposition of the importance of experimentation and the concrete experience of the student with the real situations of the physical world in the teaching and learning process. The “Itinerant Laboratory”, assembled from low-cost materials, was sent to the student's home through the teacher, presenting a learning project based on investigative activities and modeling cycles. The work was developed from an investigative didactic sequence for 3rd year high school students and aimed to bring about the student to observe and analyze the fall of bodies by evaluating the interaction between them. During the didactic sequence, the students were confronted with Newtonian and Viscous drag force models, always placing the student as an active and participatory subject in the teaching and learning process. Through the results obtained, it was found that the "Itinerant Experimental Laboratory" from the investigative activities, contributed to a critical and creative learning, contributing to the construction of knowledge and cognitive skills on the part of the students, emphasizing the teaching of physics to students. contemporaneity in which new media, technologies and strategies were part of the innovation in the teaching and learning process in which students were able to build essential meanings by creating an investigative environment in science classes, gradually expanding their scientific culture.
