Uma proposta de inserção de sequência didática em relatividade geral para o terceiro ano do ensino médio

Abstract

The present work aims at the construction of a didactic sequence on the theme of general relativity aimed at the third year of high school. One can verify in the curricular documents the need to insert topics of modern and contemporary physics in basic education. Specific articles dealing with bringing the theme of Einsteinian gravitation to high school classes were also analyzed. Based on this, and considering the physical-mathematical level of the students, based on Yves Chevallard’s didactic transposition and Antoni Zabala’s perspective of didactic sequence, a series of classes was carried out on the content of the general theory of relativity. To this end, ideas on how to bring the subjects were used, as well as the use of gifs, movie clips and virtual simulator. It can be concluded, based on the theoretical framework studied, that it is possible to bring this theme to basic education, with the proper and careful transposition of wise knowledge to a knowledge to teach that is adaptable to the student’s abilities.
