Resumo: |
The purpose of this present paper is to analyze how digital technologies and experimental activities can contribute to Physics teaching from students' perception about the application of free fall related activities. In order to achieve this aim, it was developed during the study a sequence of activities to the use of technologies and experimental activities, with the aid of the Tracker software and the simulations of the PhET platform, to approach free fall concepts in Elementary School. This paper makes use of the bibliographical research, as described in the reference section, to approach aspects related to a meaningful learning and some subjects of Physics teaching with regard to the use of digital technologies and experimental activities. The methodological procedures driven in this monograph are based on a qualitative research, especially in the case study of Lüdke and André (2013), and Bogdan and Biklen (1982). As instruments of data collection, two questionnaires, compounded by open-ended and closed-ended questions, were applied to identify the participants' perceptions. In addition to it, the students' notes during the activities and the researcher's observations made in the classroom were also used to foster the analysis. Among several different analysis techniques for qualitative researches, we chose the Content Analysis method of the categorical type to analyze the participants' perceptions and reach the outlined objective. As a result, we realized that the use of technologies and experimental activities helps students to understand the contents and improves interest and curiosity to learning Physics. We have verified by the analysis, that the students' conceptions about free fall have been modified during the activities. Mainly with regard to the gravity influence and air resistance by the fall time of a body. The students have also observed with the experiment that the mass of different bodies does not influence the fall time. |
