Learning of second order of differential equations through the study of
the movement of simple within the framework international World Pendulum
Alliance WP@elab
This research is about to analyze the effects of the implementation of a
virtual learning space in the homogeneous second-order differential equations
applied to the modeling of the phenomenon of simple pendulum physics in the
framework of the alliance with the international project World Pendulum
Alliance WPA. The collection of information was carried out with a five
question, using pre-test and post-test. The effectiveness of the strategy was
measured with the Hake gain and the evolution of learning with the vectors of
Bao. It was found that the strategy is more effective, but close to that
achieved by traditional models, so that students largely achieve the proposed
learning objectives. The evolution of learning suggests that students after the
implementation of the strategy are marked under the model of acceptable
explanation in the literature, although some participants still lean towards
the incorrect model or the distracter. Therefore, it is necessary to include in
the strategy a greater number of activities related to the description of the
physical phenomenon to be studied and the improvement of the algebraic
procedures seen in previous courses.Comment: 24 pages, in Portuguese, 7 figure
