Analysis of physical phenomena in videos a teaching proposal associated with the use of smartphones in the classroom

Abstract

This article, in a general way, describes the use of the active methodology like predict, observe and explain (POE) linked to the use of video analysis applications, being used in a typical classroom environment. Our objective is to develop and analyze a sequence of investigative classes to be applied in the first year of high school. We developed a sequence of 10 investigative classes, containing a pre and post test questionnaire, icebreaker activities, visit to the Science Square, classroom experiments, privileging the use of free information and communication technologies. We encourage students to film and analyze their own videos in class. In this way we apply the use of the active method in 3 stages: Predict; Observe; and Explain, which seeks to overcome spontaneous conceptions, pre-existing knowledge in their cognitive structure. Finally, it is worth pointing out the adherences of the students in this type of activity, there was a change in the conceptual profile; we listed the search for the student protagonism.
