DISCUSION ACERCA DE LA UTILIDAD E IMPORTANCIA DE LOS LABORATATORIOS DE FISICA EN LA ENSEÑANZA ACTUAL
Abstract
n the process of teaching and learning of physics, are referenced various scenarios in which interaction takes place between actors involved in this process. One of the main sites is the laboratory, this has been vital throughout scientific history. At present, teaching based on a traditional method does not provide the possibility of achieving the many targets proposed in the various strata, in part by the rise of technological innovation and ease for students to access information various electronic media, which leads to a possible lack of interest against the kind of traditional view. That is why this paper presents a discussion about the value of the use of laboratory space and highlights the importance of this in the development of physics classes and still more in the development of physical-mathematical thinking of students. Because the manner in which these spaces are often used in a way limited progress in the development of certain skills such as analysis, argumentation, and the apprehension of the physical concepts involved in experimentation. Finally we will introduce a series of ideas which claim to be a possible solution to the limitations of traditional laboratory sessions.
