Ensino de Física moderna e contemporânea: uma proposta de intervenção curricular sobre a disciplina de Física no Ensino Médio

Abstract

The insertion of the topics of Modern and Contemporary Physics in the High School classes shows relevant in research inside of the field Physics Teaching, since it may provide a new manner of thinking the reality the we live. Although official documents, as the new BNCC, proposes that they be a part of the curriculum, their approach is still a distant reality in most of Brazilian schools. In this work we present, through a literature review, the main difficulties and challenges to teach Modern and Contemporary Physics in high school. With this survey, we will try to highlight the importance of this content inside the perspective of the contextualized teaching, with potentially significant proposals and that can give a completeness of Physics Teaching in the view of the students, bringing the content closer to reality, thus being guided by the Meaningful Learning Theory of Ausubel. In this way, we have as main objective, proposes a reorganization of the contents of the physics curriculum, in a way that address throughout High School topics such as Special and General Relativity, Corpuscular Nature of the wave, Photoelectric effect, among others, aiming that the teachers can make use of it and thus fill gaps in the teaching of Physics in basic education
