Design of a didactical situation for teaching linear kinematics with the use of tracker software

Abstract:

Physics learning must be generated through a teaching related to students' own knowledge, allowing a construction of knowledge as well as the explanation and comprehension of physical phenomena represented in daily life situations in order to be evaluated experimentally. A didactical situation develops this kind of teaching since it produces a set of interrelations between the actors of the teaching-learning process, that is why this project proposes to develop a didactical situation to the teaching-learning of linear kinematics with the use of Tracker software, as part of a graduation project. The final objective is the complementation, articulation and support to improve the comprehension of concepts and graphs related to the rectilinear uniformly accelerated motion and that it also allows students to relate and interpret real facts with kinematics graphs through Tracker. At the same time, this proposal aims to be coherent with the curricular guidelines provided by the Ministry of Education, but significantly different to those implemented by teachers in practice.
