Desenvolvimento de um aplicativo de realidade virtual para o ensino de cinemática no ensino médio

Abstract

Due to the significant number of distractions and stimuli that people currently receive, it is a great challenge to maintain attention and concentration during study times, especially for young people and those learning Physics. The focus of this work is to develop a virtual reality application for teaching Kinematics, targeting first-year students who are learning Scalar Kinematics content, taking into account the remote-style education that is being adopted by public schools on account of the COVID-19 pandemic. So that with the use of this app, students can relate the theory acquired in class with the content presented in the app, through Unity's graphic resources. In addition to demonstrating and enhancing the concepts of kinematics, and through this, encourage students' own research on kinematics and other areas of physics. Each scene is being programmed in order to demonstrate examples of the contents that are taught in schools, but with the immersive visual aid that virtual reality provides through virtual reality glasses (cardboard)
