Futebol e o ensino de física: correlações para abordagem do lançamento oblíquo no ensino médio

Abstract

This work’s main goal is to develop an educational proposal to approach parabolic movement based on examples involving football, considering assumptions of didactic transposition. Initially, a bibliographical survey of articles, theses and dissertations was carried out that justify the thematic approach in physics teaching. In addition to these references, high school physics books were also consulted and used as references in theses, dissertations and articles read. Other publications consulted were articles presented in the latest editions of teaching events, such as the Physics Teaching Research Meeting and the National Physics Teaching Symposium. It was also investigated how the content of new releases is treated in textbooks approved in the National Textbook Plan. All preliminary research work guided the organization of an intervention, which was carried out in the classroom in a third-year class of a technical administration course. In this intervention, the relationships between parabolic movement and football were used as a contextualizing principle. It was found that this teaching strategy has the capacity to bring more meaning to the learning process of an adolescent in High School. This project evaluated the hypothesis that the teaching of physics, based on the “football” thematic approach, brings a more contextualized practice and has the potential to arouse greater student interest in the study of this discipline.
