A utilização do simulador Phet no ensino da calorimetria: uma sequência didática

Abstract

Technological tools can play an important role in the transmission of complex subjects, such as calorimetry. The use of these technologies becomes essential for creating experiments that laboratories are often unable to carry out. Furthermore, associating the use of applications with the teaching of calorimetry can contribute to the construction of learning strategies in which more students can have access to resources that would not be possible in a traditional way. In this sense, this study aims to identify what the literature addresses about the use of applications in teaching calorimetry. The study will have a qualitative approach, of an exploratory nature, through a literature review. The data will be collected in the electronic library databases Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO) and Google Scholars and in dissertations and theses available at Capes. As a search strategy, “calorimetry”, “smartphone” and “educational application” will be used as descriptors. It is hoped that this study can contribute to the teaching-learning system, since, through the literature that will be found, it will be possible to verify what studies show about the use of applications in teaching calorimetry.
