Eletrostática e física de partículas sob o olhar da História da Ciência: Uma proposta para a construção de animações e vídeos no Ensino Médio

Abstract

The present work on the use of the History of Science (HS), methodological method, in the school disciplines, mainly in the teaching of Physics. It is noticed that new approaches, distanced from the traditional format, chalk and blackboard, are not easily implemented in the classroom. Among these less contemplated formats are in use of HS. As discussions about the use of the type of approach without teaching of Physics began in the 1950s, but everything in the 1990s was that its presence was verified as an indication of the new parameters within the curriculum, together with the Lei de Diretrizes e Bases de 1996 (Educations Bases and Aims act of 1996). Even with so many works developed within the perspective of the use of HS, the picture is not so satisfactory, since it is a bit for the jobs in question for the students of the High School bringing applications and results. A proposal in our research advocates an application of a project in the classroom, involving a HS in Physics classes. In this perspective, the student must act as protagonist of his own learning. The use of HS, in the midst of the construction of animations and videos, enables the student to become aware of their creativity, criticality and argumentation during the studies of historical episodes and HS. The content of Physics covered in this work is an Electronic with a Physics of Particles, a theme of Modern Physics, which is not addressed in High School. The students got in touch with the subject and produced an animation / video from their research and content studied.
