Introdução de conceitos Físicos sobre Eletricidade no Ensino Fundamental I

Abstract

Despite the advances of academic research on teaching physics in Brazil, regarding the understanding of the problems related to the teaching of Science and the existence of a disclosure system (journals, events, dissertations, theses, postgraduate courses), there is still little classroom application. These results still find resistance to its application in pedagogical practice, as the actual practice of teachers in the area is still marked by traditional perspectives of teaching and learning, either for material reasons, either by problems in the very formation of the science teacher. Research in Teaching Physics have shown that there are great difficulties that students feel in learning the various contents of physics, as well as apply them in everyday situations. In light of this situation, this paper seeks to attempt to insert primary concepts of electricity in the discipline of physics of elementary school I series. In order to do this, a research was first carried out with students of these series in a private school in Maringá, about their previous knowledge in a certain subject related to Physics, later, it was proposed the use of some electrical instruments for students to try to conceptualize Current and its effects with concrete experimentation.
