O ensino de física forense no ensino médio

Abstract

Currently, Physics Teaching in Brazil has still been out of context. Being considered an unattractive subject by students, one of the great challenges for physics teachers today is to awaken student interest in this subject. The present work aims to develop a proposal for a didactic sequence for first-year high school students, which relates forensic physics to situations perceptible to the student in their daily lives, through the use of content: principle of conservation of energy; principle of conservation of momentum; free fall and horizontal launch in three activities distributed throughout the teaching sequence. Seeking a contextualization of teaching, the objective of this proposal is to awaken students' interest in the subject of Physics, making them see the intrinsic importance of this Science and how it can be applied in real situations through interactive and dynamic classes, where the student incorporates the role of expert through an investigative approach, significantly adding to the content covered in the classroom.
