Desenvolvimento e análise de um jogo de tabuleiro para a aprendizagem de Força e a Primeira Lei de Newton no Ensino de Fí­sica

Abstract

The main objective of this work was to verify the potential of a board game in terms of learning concepts related to the content of Force and Newton's First Law. Physics is usually taught in a traditional way with classes that are limited to blackboards and chalk, which are unattractive and mathematized. Therefore, the research carried out using the game portrays the ability to use play to improve or facilitate the learning of Physics content. The board game created was a product of the master's course, Analysis and Development of Teaching Resources for Teaching Science and Mathematics, and applied to a 1st grade high school class at a federal public school in the city of Jataí­-GO. The students demonstrated motivation during the implementation of the activity, engaging in discussions of physical concepts and interaction with the group. The results presented demonstrated that the game contributed positively to the learning of the aforementioned concepts.
