A Utilização da plataforma arduino no processo de aprendizagem da física por meio da abordagem STEAM

Abstract

The present dissertation is the result of a research developed with future physics teachers that justifies the problem of high school students, who classify it as a tedious and difficult to understand discipline, thus making the task of the teacher in teaching and an apathy in learning. With the advances in the field of digital electronics and computing, communications and more specifically telecommunications have gained a new guise through the advent of smartphones, smart TV and the internet. The objective was to develop a Task-Centered Learning (TCL) process guided by the objects of learning from the Revised Bloom Taxonomy in relation to the content of Thermodynamics in a Degree in Physics. The research had a qualitative, exploratory and descriptive focus. The possibilities of practical thermodynamic learning were examined using the Arduino electronic prototyping platform guided by STEAM education (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics) in the Remote Teaching modality. The applied methodology consisted of setting the participants up to solve real-world problems in order to guide them through learning that involved the integration of different areas of human knowledge and contextualized with the events and needs of the 21st century, in a practical perspective. The results of the data were analyzed and discussed in this dissertation. The conclusion is that STEAM education contributes to an environment that facilitates and promotes the learning of Thermodynamics from the use of Arduino.
