O uso de simulação computacional para a aprendizagem do conteúdo estudos dos gases na disciplina de Física

Abstract

The technologies are present in everyday life in our schools. In Physics classes these technologies are shown as a tool for teaching and learning. In this sense, it was planned planned and implemented a Physics classroom activity using a computer simulation. This activity aimed to provide an interactive and differentiated learning and tackling physics concepts related to the study of gases. It was developed so that the simulation was accompanied by a problem situation and a step-by-step resolution (heuristic), available in printed form. In analyzing the results, we can observe that students had a better understanding of the concepts related to the microscopic model under study, since they were able to visualize and recognize relationships between state variables that describe the behavior of gases.
