Explicaciones de procesos termodinámicos a partir del modelo corpuscular : una propuesta didáctica

Abstract

According to the results of an exploratory research on Thermodynamics, it is concluded that the university students tested prefer explanations which account for underlying mechanisms (batigenous explanations) in physical phenomena analysed during the instruction process. Usage of explanations of this type as a promising didactical resource in the teaching of certain thermodynamic changes in gases is suggested, and two particular processes are used as examples
