    This work aims to investigate and explore an additional method for teaching physics, using technology through robotics to teach concepts and practices related to electrical circuits. The goal is to examine the potential of using the Pictoblox platform as a supporting tool in high school physics education. Given the challenges faced in the learning process of this subject, often characterized by abstract and decontextualized approaches, this study seeks to assess how the introduction of a block-based programming language, integrated with sensors and electronic components, can contribute to building physics knowledge in a more interactive, experimental, and meaningful way. Thinking about overcoming such obstacles and motivating high school students to study physics, we thought of using the software PictoBblox, a tool based on SCRATCH, which allows the development of programming in blocks, and also allows connection to boards (microcontrollers) Arduino. The use of the Arduino board will be of great importance in this research, as this is the time when students will need to exercise their knowledge about circuits and, by building and handling variations of these circuits, it will be possible to achieve significant learning on the topic covered. The option to promote a didactic sequence using this software to teach electrical circuits is based on the use of technology to make physics more attractive and understandable to students, making them not only understand the content, but also recognize the importance of learning it.

    This study is based on the following scientific problem: can the use of virtual simulation technologies contribute to the teaching of Physics? Its main objective is to analyze the contribution of virtual simulation technologies to improving the learning of Physics concepts in the 1st year of High School, which leads to the following guiding questions: what studies already exist on the use of virtual simulations for Physics learning? Have research studies on this topic shown promising results? What teaching methodology supports the use of these simulations in the classroom? How can virtual simulations contribute to learning in the Physics class? To address these questions, the following specific objectives were established: to use interactive virtual simulations of physical experiments through a virtual laboratory; to explain Newton’s Laws using interactive digital simulations; to employ virtual simulations through videos from open platforms illustrating the real movement of the Solar System around the Sun and the Milky Way; to apply the proposed virtual simulations in the classroom; to identify whether virtual simulations motivate and arouse the curiosity of this new generation of students regarding Physics; and to verify whether virtual simulations contribute to Physics teaching. The study was conducted in four stages, over four lessons at the PublicSchool Prof. Ruy Alencar and in Public School Dr. José Milton Bandeira, with data collection carried out through questionnaires, and data analysis performed using a qualitative approach. As a contribution, the study proposes a solution based on the use of Digital Technologies (DT) for the implementation of virtual simulations, both through interactive virtual Physics laboratories and videos, aiming to make learning more dynamic and accessible, especially in complex physical phenomena. The research demonstrated that virtual simulations are fundamental in increasing students’ motivation and curiosity regarding Physics. By using interactive virtual laboratories and videos, it was possible to make teaching more dynamic and engaging, allowing students to visualize physical phenomena that are difficult to understand theoretically. The results revealed that students felt more interested and motivated when simulations were incorporated into the lessons, transforming learning into a more practical and exciting experience. Thus, simulations not only supported teaching but also sparked students’ interest in the subject, demonstrating that the integration of digital technologies is highly beneficial for contemporary education.

    Uso de um análogo mecânico de buracos negros associado a metodologia Peer Instruction no ensino de conceitos de relatividade geral

    This dissertation presents the development, validation, and implementation of an educational product consisting of a mechanical analogue representing black holes, articulated with the active methodology Peer Instruction (PI), with the aim of investigating its contributions to the teaching of introductory concepts of General Relativity in High School. The proposal is based on the understanding of gravitation as the curvature of spacetime and seeks to establish conceptual relationships between Classical Physics and Modern Physics, in order to favor the meaningful learning of abstract and epistemologically challenging content. The research is characterized as an applied study, of a qualitative-quantitative nature, developed with two classes of the third year of High School, totaling 40 students. The pedagogical intervention was structured in a didactic sequence composed of six classes, in which the mechanical analogue was used as a mediating resource, associated with the systematic application of Peer Instruction. Data collection involved the application of pre- and post-intervention questionnaires using a Likert scale, conceptual tests with objective and open-ended questions, analyzed using Hake's normalized gain, and the use of standardized logbooks for students to complete throughout the classes. The results indicate relevant conceptual gains for a significant portion of the students, as well as positive changes in perceptions related to interest, active participation, and understanding of the concepts covered. The integrated analysis of the instruments highlights the convergence between measured and perceived learning, in addition to emphasizing the role of peer interactions and the critical use of analogies in the conceptual construction process. It is concluded that the articulation between physical analogies and active methodologies constitutes a promising pedagogical strategy for the introduction of Modern Physics topics in High School, provided it is accompanied by intentional teacher mediation and consistent theoretical grounding. This study contributes to the field of Physics Education by offering an educational product, embodied in a validated Teaching Guide, and by expanding discussions on didactic possibilities for teaching General Relativity in school contexts, while also pointing to perspectives for future research.

    Espectroscopia óptica: uma estratégia para uma aprendizagem significativa do modelo atômico no ensino médio
    (Instituto Federal de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia do Amazonas, 2025-08-15) Cordeiro, Rafael Cardoso
    This study analyzed the effectiveness of a didactic sequence (DS), grounded in Meaningful Learning theory, which utilizes a low-cost optical spectroscopy experiment to promote the reconstruction of subsumers and the acquisition of concepts related to atomic models and spectroscopy among 11th-grade high school students. The research adopted a qualitative approach with an exploratory and descriptive design. Data collection involved both preintervention discursive and post-intervention objective conceptual tests, as well as observation records. Data were analyzed qualitatively using the content analysis method applied to the students' responses. The DS was implemented with 25 students from a public school in Manaus, Amazonas. The results indicated that the pedagogical intervention was effective. In the pre-test, the majority of students did not demonstrate robust evidence of meaningful learning on the topics. However, after the DS was implemented, a significant learning gain was observed across all topics, as measured by Hake's normalized gain. Specifically, for Wien's Law, the normalized Hake gain was 0.79, which is considered high, indicating that students understood the relationship between wavelength and temperature. For the concepts of object color (absorption and reflection), the gain was 0.94, also classified as high, showing that students grasped the process of color formation. Regarding the atomic models, the gains were 0.47 for Dalton, 0.67 for Thomson, 0.46 for Rutherford, and 0.68 for Bohr. Although these gains are considered medium, they still represent a significant improvement compared to traditional methods. Finally, for spectral lines, the gain was 0.78, a high gain. The overall normalized gain of the DS was 0.67, which indicates that the teaching methodology employed fostered active student participation and the development of conceptual understanding, thus characterizing meaningful learning.

    This dissertation aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the Project-Based Learning methodology applied to the teaching of Newton's three laws, using educational robotics as a mediation tool in the teaching-learning process. The research was developed at the Professor Jorge Karam Neto State School, in the city of Manaus-AM, seeking to understand how the integration between theory and practice, through the construction and programming of robots, can favor the learning of the fundamental concepts of dynamics. The development of the work was structured in four phases: analysis, elaboration, implementation and evaluation. In the analysis phase, diagnostic questionnaires were applied to identify the students' prior knowledge and their learning needs in relation to Newton's laws. Based on these data, a teaching-learning sequence based on Project-Based Learning was developed, in which the students, organized in groups, planned, assembled and programmed robots capable of participating in practical challenges, such as tug-of-war and sumo wrestling competitions. During implementation, students were challenged to apply concepts of force, mass, acceleration, and action and reaction to optimize the performance of prototypes, integrating physical knowledge into the assembly and programming processes of devices. Assessment was carried out continuously, using formative assessment instruments, using specific rubrics that allowed monitoring the progress of students in criteria such as understanding of concepts, teamwork, application of data, and reflection on their own learning process. In addition to the formative assessment, a final assessment was conducted on students' perceptions of the activities performed. The results demonstrated that the use of educational robotics, combined with the Project-Based Learning methodology, provided a more dynamic, collaborative, and meaningful learning environment, contributing to a better understanding of physical concepts and the development of essential skills, such as critical thinking, logical reasoning, and problem-solving. It is concluded that the adopted approach not only promoted the strengthening of Physics knowledge, but also encouraged autonomy, protagonism and student engagement, demonstrating that active methodologies integrated with technology constitute an effective strategy for improving Physics teaching, especially in high school.
