Uma proposta de sequência didática para o ensino de ondas eletromagnéticas

Abstract

This work aimed to apply, develop, implement and evaluate the pedagogical potential of a Didactic-Pedagogical Production (SD), according to Zabala (1998) and Dolz, Noverraz and Schneuwly (2004), elaborated with the general objective of producing a Didactic Sequence electromagnetic waves, in order to provide students with a sequence of activities for learning the content of “Electromagnetic Waves”. The application of this educational product was carried out in a 3rd year high school class of a public school, in the interior of Paraná. The Didactic Sequence was built by the theoretical foundations of Ausubel's Meaningful Learning (1982), which contemplates meaningful learning as the association of previous ideas in the learner's cognitive structure with the acquired ones. Also, to achieve such learning the teacher needs to use significant teaching resources, such as experimentation. While, the application of this educational product was guided by the principles of Qualitative Research. The method used for data collection was the Field Diary and the analysis was guided by the interpretation and attribution of meanings. From the results it can be highlighted the greater involvement of students with learning, development of competences and skills of critical sense, democratic spirit, respect and pleasure in learning. Finally, from the observation, analysis and interpretation of the data, it was possible to consider that this Didactic Sequence produced and applied with these references has a great pedagogical capacity in the teaching of the content Electromagnetic Waves.
