O USO DE DIFERENTES RECURSOS DE ENSINO NA APRENDIZAGEM DE FÍSICA

Abstract

In order to study a physics subject one carried out teaching activities by using lectures, a laboratory experiment, a videofilm, and the textbook. The learning of 25 students that took part in these activities about interference of light reflected on thin films was analyzed. The data, which were collected by using questionnaires, show that the students have the opinion that they learned abilities, concepts, relationships and ideas about the subject better by doing the activity which is closer related to each part of this subject. Their opinions were also in favor of the use of the laboratory and the video as teaching alternatives or, they in general were favorable to the use of different teaching resources. This shows the importance of having teachers well prepared to plan and develop several teaching activities about a certain subject, because then they will be creating better conditions to make learning happen.
