Física moderna para o ensino médio: uma abordagem do efeito fotoelétrico com a metodologia simulada em plataforma digital

Abstract

The Respective work has as objective, the adequacy of contents of Modern Physics, particularly the Photoelectric Effect, which is part of the syllabus of the physics discipline of the third year of high school, from a methodological perspective of didactic sequences, using experiments in a virtual way., virtual simulators and construction of solar energy boards, these actions will be complementary to the textbook, considering that this work is used with the dissertation of the National Professional Master in Physics Teaching (MNPEF). It is very likely that we live in an interconnected world, and media and/or applications are commonplace in society. For that, we have to have knowledge of the physical concepts that involve the operation of these technologies, however, they are not always included in the students' language. In our proposal to solve this problem and follow, mainly, the evolution of technology, we consider that Physics Teaching cannot censor topics covered in High School, thus simplifying concepts of Modern and Contemporary Physics. The possibility of using digital platforms, such as online computer simulations, when dealing with content that in Public Schools do not have resources, to build their laboratories, even though they are multidisciplinary. One of the viable alternatives to face these conditions, we set up a didactic sequence focused on the virtual use of the phenomena presented by Modern Physics, as is the case of the Photoelectric Effect. In the evaluation phase, we use a set of questions that take into account the students' prior knowledge of the contents covered and aim to arouse interest in the themes, addressing the importance that practical classes have in the life of high school students, providing opportunities for knowledge of educational mechanisms, objectives and their meanings.
