A produção de vídeos amadores de experimentos como ferramenta para a educação química

Abstract

This work aims to analyze the production of digital video as ludic tool as well as to investigate its role on the cognitive function. The activity of amateur digital video production was developed at the Instituto Federal de Alagoas - Campus Murici, being done with a group of students from the 2nd year of high school integrated. This choice was due to be in class when the proponent of the study teaches. A class containing 19 students, produced eight videos, which were objects of analysis in this dissertation. The results show that all experiments made use of simple materials and found easily, and provide fun and pleasure.Freedom, willingness and creativity in the production of the videos were striking features and observed that activity. The production of the videos allowed the demonstration of the students from the concrete, common sense, and his language to more rigorous discussion of chemical knowledge involved in an activity with great potential for learning by engaging students cognitively and playfully. Thus, it was possible to explore the involvement of teacher subject to foster discussion of scientific knowledge, making the analysis and discussion of videos a moment of formative assessment and knowledge production.
