Aprendizagem ativa, formação e desenvolvimento de conceitos científicos de termodinâmica

Abstract

The formation and development of scientific concepts are fundamental to the educational process, as they favor the meaningful understanding of curricular content in teaching and learning. The introduction of active learning in the classroom offers a new pedagogical perspective, allowing for better assimilation of essential scientific concepts. This research is theoretically based on active learning and the strategies aimed at implementing it methodologically, and is configured as a differential in the context of the new generation of active subjects in the process of constructing knowledge, especially in the face of digital information and communication technologies. The problem investigated is: how can active learning contribute to the formation of scientific concepts in thermodynamics in the teaching-learning process in a high school in Manaus? In this sense, the general objective is to implement an active teaching-learning process, linked to the formation of scientific concepts, through strategies that favor cognition and interactivity. Methodologically, this is a qualitative and participatory study, based on a case study with students in the first year of the new high school, using a sample of students from a school located in the east of Manaus. The results showed a methodological structure focused on interactivity in contemporary teaching, promoting the mobilization of learning and the development of skills and competences, with the aim of enriching the students' educational experience.
