A Aplicação da Física por Meio de Robôs Lego Mindstorms no Ensino Médio em Tefé

Abstract

The present paper is related to the use of robotics in Physics education, proposing a theoretical model of teaching and learning that employs interdisciplinarity and transdisciplinarity to enhance the appeal of physics classes, adopting a qualitative approach. Its main objective is to develop a theoretical model using the Lego Mindstorms EV3 robotics kit as an educational tool, enabling the understanding of physics concepts taught in the 1st year of high school, with the aim of enriching the lesson planning for mechanics teachers. This project was carried out at the Municipal Robotics Laboratory through the Program of Support for Scientific Initiation - PAIC of UEA. Through this study, the goal is to demonstrate how the use of these robots can be effectively integrated into the teaching process, improving the comprehension of physics concepts and making classes more engaging for students. By employing a qualitative methodology, the work analyzes teachers' perception regarding the use of robotics as an educational tool and develops a theoretical model that can serve as a guide for the development of more effective and dynamic mechanics lessons.
