Discutindo conceitos de óptica geométrica e natureza ondulatória da luz para alunos do ensino médio, através de prática experimental utilizando materiais alternativos

Abstract

This work addresses the use of experimental practice in high school, seeking to complement the theoretical study of optics, with experiments using alternative materials and seeking to show in practice what students usually see in theory, through a didactic sequence. The objective was to analyze the development of the teaching-learning process in physics teaching, extracting data about the class and seeking to evaluate the impact of an experimental class and identify related problems related to teaching-learning methods. To achieve these results, a questionnaire was applied which made it possible to see the students' interest in experimental classes, among other specific points. The work was carried out at Edith Nobre de Castro College, in the city of São Raimundo Nonato PI, in a 2 year high school class. However after the research it was possible to affirm that the results were satisfactory through the obtained data. Where it was observed that the used didactic sequence of theory and practice contributes a lot to teaching-learning.
