Análises dos desempenhos de algumas atividades experimentais no processo de ensino e aprendizagem de física

Abstract

This work analyzed the performance of experimental activities as a didactic resource in the teaching-learning process of Physics, highlighting their relevance in making the content more concrete and accessible. The research is bibliographical in nature, descriptive in nature and qualitative in approach, based on publications in the journal Somma, from the Federal Institute of Piauí, from 2016 to 2025. Five articles were selected and analyzed that deal with experimental practices, carried out in person with accessible materials or through virtual simulations. The results show that experimental activities contribute significantly to the teaching of physics, as they promote motivation, student engagement and the contextualization of content, as well as reducing the level of abstraction in lessons. However, the research identified a limited number of publications focusing on the performance of these practices, which highlights the need for more studies that value and deepen the use of experimentation in physics teaching, especially in basic education.
