A utilização de experimentos de baixo custo para construção dos conceitos de hidrostática

Abstract

Considering that experimental activities are methods that collaborate in the investigation and development of the student's knowledge construction, research is carried out on the experiment kit for Hydrostatic classes, in order to investigate the implications of the use of experimental activities in learning students on the concepts covered in hydrostatics. Therefore, it is necessary to know the relationship between experimental activities and the teaching-learning process in Physics, Build low-cost experiments that can be used in experimental activities in the regular classroom in the teaching-learning process and Investigate whether the activities are developed potentially significant for student learning. A bibliographic and experimental research is carried out. In view of this, it appears that: most schools do not have Physics laboratories; the use of experimental activities provides the construction of scientific knowledge and contributions to the development of skills and competences in students, which imposes the observation that experimental activities significantly contribute to the construction of scientific knowledge if worked in an investigative way.
