Proposta de um sistema de representação da reflexão da luz em um espelho esférico para alunos com deficiência visual

Abstract

The purpose of this work is to contribute to the teaching and learning of physics for students with visual impairment, through touchable didactic materials; due to the fact that mostly educational resources in schools are visuals only. The objective was to overcome the lack of educational materials for these students and to provide this tools to teachers, considering that most of times the teachers were not trained to teaching these students; we built representative materials of spherical concave and convex mirrors, because geometrical optics is a predominantly visual subject, thereby needing materials to help in the understanding of this subject, also the behavior light beams. The purpose of this practice enable the students to distinguish the types of spherical mirrors, thus, they could understand the behavior of the light, by mean of touching.
