Ensino de física contemporânea: a história da nanotecnologia utilizando o método Peer Instruction

Abstract

Nanotechnology is a branch of inter and multidisciplinary science, therefore it enables several topics to be covered in the classroom without much mathematical rigor. This one work proposes to explore the History of Nanotechnology, making use of methodologies active activities, especially Peer Instruction, and its theoretical contributions such as Theories of Learning from Vygotsky and Ausubel, we created a Didactic Sequence based on this methodology created by Eric Mazur, which is based on improving the understanding of concepts presented in class. These classes developed in this work can be evaluated with the Hake Gain methodology, which is a standardized measurement that serves as a basis of comparison between two states or learning times.
