Joselaine Setlik – Educational Philosophy and Theory, 2024
We develop the notions of "resistance" and "points of entry" in the context of alternative written textual formats used in physics teacher education. Studies point out that textbooks have played an important role in undergraduate physics courses, which can be part of the initial training of physics teachers. On the foundation…

Paulo Victor Santos Souza; Marta Máximo-Pereira; Ariane Baffa Lourenço – Science Education International, 2024
An alternative to insert history of science (HS) in teacher formation programs is the use of concept maps (CM), which may be very useful to represent the historical elaboration dimension of science concepts, laws, and principles. This paper presents the results of a study that identifies the conceptions of pre-service physics teachers about the…

Katarin Alinta Macleod; Silmara Alessi Guebur Roehrig – European Journal of Physics Education, 2022
Science, technology, society, and environment (STSE) education is a focus of the public education system of both Canada and Brazil and therefore should translate into the teaching and learning that occurs within their respective Bachelor of Education programs when addressing Science education, and specifically the connections between STSE and…

Jardim, Wagner Tadeu; Guerra, Andreia; Schiffer, Hermann – Science & Education, 2021
Science educators are increasingly using a historical approach to pedagogy as a way to enable students to understand the process of the construction of science in a more contextualized manner. Considering the meaning of context in a broader sense, this article has two objectives. First, it aims to explore how physics lessons using a Cultural…

Tomkelski, Mauri Luís; Baptista, Mónica; Richit, Adriana – European Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2023
The article analyses teachers' learning on the use of multiple representations (MRs) in the teaching of Ohm's law, examining them in a lesson study, structured in 18 meetings of 2.5 hours each, that addressed this physics curricular topic for the 3rd grade of high school. The qualitative research involved four teachers who teach physics in…

Tasso E. F. Diógenes; Gabriela A. de B. Vieira; Joao R. A. Leao; Glaydson F. B. de Oliveira – Journal of Education and Learning, 2024
The professional high school by the federal schools in Brazil requires an integrated curriculum itinerary. There is a lack of information about how to achieve that in a practical conception of integration. This article aimed to investigate the interdisciplinary approach of the content "transformation of energy" involving the relationship…

Papai, Rodrigo; Romano, Majara Araujo; Arroyo, Aline Rodrigues; Rodrigues da Silva, Bárbara; Tresoldi, Bruno; Winter, Gabriela Cabo; Costa, Julia Messias; Freitas Santos, Maria Aparecida; Prata, Matheus Damasceno; Gaubeur, Ivanise – Journal of Chemical Education, 2019
A creative apparatus for use in a hands-on laboratory experiment that allows the visualization of the vapor pressure as a function of temperature is described in this paper. Inspired by homemade barometers and using simple materials that are easily accessible for teaching laboratories, a lowcost system for the establishment of the vapor-pressure…

dos Santos, Paulo José Sena; dos Santos, Toni Fernando Mendes – Physics Education, 2021
Many researches show that students have difficulties in understanding graphics in kinematics. Some authors argue that we can use different instructional strategies to reduce these difficulties. Based on these studies, we developed and applied a didactic sequence using educational robotics to teach graphic analysis in movements in a dimension with…

Marcom, Guilherme Stecca; Villar, Renato Pacheco; Kleinke, Maurício Urban – Physics Education, 2022
Research on problem-solving strategies has been conducted since the 1940s. Experts and novices use different strategies in problem solving; the main difference is in the familiarity with which they face new problems. For multiple-choice problems, an analysis of distractors can provide possible clues about the resolution processes developed by…

Ferreira, Eric Batista; Toti, Frederico Augusto – Science & Education, 2022
Brazilian journals play an important role in the local scientific scene. Despite its importance, Brazilian scientific production in Physics and Science education needs further articulation regarding the profile and impact of manuscripts. Therefore, our main goal in this paper is to monitor the trends in the Brazilian journals from 2013 to 2019…

Leite, Danielle Aparecida Reis; Silva, Luciano Fernandes – Physics Education, 2021
In Brazil, environmental topics in teacher education programmes have largely been addressed and explored by the field of research in Environmental Education and subsidized by legislative and normative instruments. Nevertheless, the difficulties in articulating environmental topics within some areas of knowledge compromise their integration in…

Velloso, M.; Arana, M.; Acioly, V.; Santos, A. C. F. – Physics Education, 2021
The COVID-19 Pandemic interrupted university activities at the beginning of the first semester of 2020, forcing the academic community to reinvent itself to meet the determinations of social isolation. The use of assistive technologies such as information and communication technologies has never been more welcome. However, for a college student…
