Ensino de física: os impactos oriundos da pandemia do COVID-19 na aprendizagem de alunos do ensino médio

Abstract

This study investigates the impacts of the pandemic on high school Physics education, focusing on the experiences of both teachers and students. The research addressed issues of accessibility to technological resources, the quality of remote teaching compared to in-person instruction, teacher-student interaction, and challenges faced in remote learning. The methodology involved the administration of a questionnaire with 16 questions, with the participation of 11 teachers. Their responses highlighted significant challenges, including a lack of devices and connectivity, difficulties for students with special needs, and stress resulting from the transition to distance learning. The unanimous perception that learning during the pandemic was less effective than in-person education underscores the difficulties faced. Lessons learned emphasize the need for adaptation, innovation, teacher-student interaction, and preparedness for different educational scenarios. Suggestions for post-pandemic education include increased investment in infrastructure, appropriate workload, curriculum modernization, and a more practical approach. This study provides crucial insights for the ongoing improvement of high school Physics education in the face of challenges posed by the pandemic.
