O uso da robótica educacional como metodologia ativa aplicada ao ensino de Física

Abstract

The use of active methodologies adds significant values in teaching-learning, as it is an approach where creativity is a crucial instrument for the learning and autonomy of students, especially in Physics teaching. This work aimed to apply an educational robotics project as a form of active methodology for the teaching of Physics. The work was carried out from the participation of a PIBEX Extension Project (Public Notice No. 383/2022 – CESC/UEMA), which was applied in three Basic Education schools in partnership with the Physics laboratory of CESC/UEMA Campus Caxias - MA, in order to bring creative proposals that arouse the interest of students, based on experiments carried out through the Arduino microcontroller. This work was developed from five stages, which were exercised in the students' after-hours. For the evaluation, two questionnaires were applied, before and after the execution of the Project, to diagnose the students' knowledge about robotics and evaluate the importance of active methodologies through robotics experiments for their training. Therefore, it is found in the results that these methodologies cause a lot of interest from students and make learning Physics content more meaningful and dynamic with the use of educational robotics
