Objetos de aprendizagem : uma alternativa para o ensino de conceitos de eletrostática no ensino médio

Abstract

In this paper are presented the results of a research done with the high school students of a public school located in the Cuiabá - MT City. The research was conducted in 2012 during the third quarter of the school that an instructional material, consisting of an organizer and a learning object, where the organizer did the introduction about the subject and the object showed about specific parts used. The subject chosen was to electrostatic, the organizer developed it is a slideshow with motion characteristics in each frame of the animation. With the use of the organizer, several physical concepts related to electrostatic were presented. Subsequently, a learning object developed in flash, used in subsequent classes was used. The simulations were organized into three files and developed in such a way as to comply with a previously established conceptual organization, favoring the process of progressive differentiation and integrator reconciliation that is based by the learning theory of Ausubel. Altogether, there were seven classes, with the first and last were used for the tests, for later comparison of results. The results were used to verify which of the subjects shown within the content of electrostatics, the learning object (Simulation) was efficient and in which subjects will be needed another complementary material. The material used was prepared as material support for to be used in lectures, or slides, but also in conjunction with other types of instructional materials such as experiments, mockups and others simulations with the goal of promoting learning and awakening student interest.
