Rural education provides unique experiences with different meanings. It should serve as an instrument for social transformation and understanding of the learner about the world and your experience. The curricular component of Physics it is of significant importance, since many things developed in the field have physical explanations and are present in the daily life of the student. In this sense, the objective of the present dissertation was the elaboration and application of a didactic sequence on Newton's Laws based on the theory of meaningful learning proposed by David Ausubel. The educational product was developed in the form of a didactic sequence and applied to students in the ninth year of elementary school at the Escola Polo Municipal de Ensino Fundamental Neuza de Oliveira Bravin. The application of the educational product involved three distinct phases, the first for an initial diagnosis, the second for the elaboration and application of the didactic sequence, through the accomplishment of experiments with the students, and the third and last phase for the final analysis and evaluation with student participation. The structuring of the research in the classroom sought subsidies for educators interested in applying the teaching methodology on Newton's Laws in the classroom, focusing on the education of/in the field aiming at a significant learning of the students. The result of this research has generated results, such as the availability of a didactic material (educational product) that can be used by other rural education teachers, thus making the teaching of Physics more attractive and understandable to students.

In the process of teaching physics, we are faced with numerous studies that seek diversified ways of teaching and learning through differentiated and effective methodologies. Several publications focused on physics teaching present changes in the way of presenting physics contents in such a way that the teaching process provides the student with an active and constructive participation. In search of changes, the teacher needs to explore innovative means that involve the use of technology and that allow the student a connection with the studied science. A very promising proposal is the use of computational means and their resources, since it has been applied by many teaching institutions, with results beyond expectations. Faced with these results, teachers woke up to explore the use of these resources in a meaningful way, combining them with learning theories in the teaching process. In Physics teaching, for example, where concepts, equations and calculations are studied, there was a need to work with platforms that relate concepts and problems studied through computational simulations. The objective of this dissertation is focused on the study of Physical Science, namely, the theme of energy, through computational simulations available on the SimuFísica platform. The study of this theme covers the three years of the new high school. With that in mind, we have prepared an eBook, a digital book aimed at teaching Physics, consisting of class scripts involving three simulations available on the SimuFísica platform. The eBook was created with the justification of offering innovative proposals in the Physics teaching process through the use of computational simulations available on the SimuFísica platform, since SimuFísica allows the educator to work on the understanding and construction of learning of Physics science through computational simulations in an interactive and meaningful environment, in addition to providing interaction and communication between students. Finally, this dissertation work promotes something more dynamic, participatory and inclusive between the student and the moment of study with Physics.

In the search to prove theories based on observations, the practice of experimental activities dates back to the beginning of history. With the emergence of universities, the close relationship between theory and practice in the most diverse areas of science became evident. With regard to the teaching of Physics in basic education, for many decades emphasis was placed on memorizing mathematical formulas to the detriment of concepts and examples of what is experienced on a daily basis, a fact that may have led students to demotivation and lack of interest in studies related to natural sciences. Fortunately, some teachers are changing their conceptions about teaching Physics, starting to implement strategies that provide students with greater interest in the topics covered in the classroom. In this context, the present work proposes the elaboration and use of a new pedagogical tool that helps the teaching of physics on topics related to the theme “electricity” for high school students, called “Console for Electrical Experiments, with Measuring Instruments and Source”. The educational product was applied to students in the third year of high school at the Escola Estadual de Ensino Fundamental e Médio Professor José Francisco dos Santos, located in Ji-Paraná, Rondônia, in the year 2022. The students who participated in the activities were divided into randomly, in three groups of 34 students: T1, T2 and T3. The T1 group represented the students who did not participate in any form of teaching about the content during the application of the project. T2 consisted of the group of students who only had access to three expository theoretical classes on the research topic. And T3 represented the group that attended the three theoretical classes and also participated in the experimental classes using the educational product. The experimental classes were guided by interactive dynamics, encouraging student participation, group activities and qualitative assessment. As auxiliary tools in addition to the educational product, an overhead projector and the PHET application were used. Finally, after closing the experimental classes and applying the evaluations, the analysis of the results obtained with the aid of the RStudio statistical software was carried out, which, when comparing the results achieved by each group, demonstrated that there was a relevant difference in the performance of T3 in relation to the other groups, as can be seen in detail in chapter 4. It is considered premature to state that the use of the educational product was the main responsible for the good results obtained, since the application of the project was restricted to a few students and included only one school, however it can be inferred that the results are encouraging and that they point to the need to continue with this project so that a more assertive conclusion can be reached.

The purpose of this article is to describe the use of photovoltaic panels for teaching physics subject in high school. In this context, experiments were carried out with mini solar panels with 20 students from the 1st and 3rd grade of high school, from the State School of Elementary and Secondary Education Cora Coralina, in Cacoal-RO. The educational product counted with a bibliographic study based on David Ausebel's theory and four scripts with themes related to electrodynamics and modern physics. Before and after the development of the educational product, a pre-test and post-test questionnaire was applied to assess the contribution of this new method of teaching Physics. The results showed a greater understanding of the contents of electrodynamics by the students after the experience in the form of a practical class, and this method was well evaluated by the participating students, considering that it contributed in a clearer and more effective way to the teaching process and physics learning. In view of this, it is concluded that it is important for teachers to integrate new teaching methodologies into their pedagogical practice, especially in the physics content that is complex due to its equations, to make classes more fun, interesting and productive, arousing student interest in the subject. that is being studied. As well as promoting greater strengthening and relationship between students and studentteachers.

This paper discusses a didactic sequence using the practice of sports as a reference for the understanding of concepts involving Mechanical Energy. The sequence was introduced in six steps, distributed over eleven classes of physics, with first year high school students of the private school Educar de forma remota, using Google Meet. Initially the basic concepts of kinetic and potential energy were introduced through the PowerPoint program. In the next step the students made observations of the applicability of kinetic energy, potential energy and gravitational potential energy in images of the execution of sports, namely, pole vault, long jump, volleyball touch ball and basketball hoop throw, taken from articles available on Google, with their respective sources cited. Step three included the use of two videos that show the basketball throw and the soccer ball kick, both making use of numbers. Concluding the process of the stages of the didactic sequence, the PhET simulator was used as a means of interacting students with the transformations and conservation of energy involved in a system with a proposed activity. As a way of discussing the results, the students made concept maps where they expressed the way in which they understood the concepts of mechanical energy and answered an opinion questionnaire about the extent of their learning

The present work aims to verify the potential of the teaching methodology in the Inverted Classroom format in the Science classes offered at the Municipal School Professora Ivonete Venâncio in the city of Vale do Paraíso in the state of Rondônia. The study proposal focused on the student's bibliographical research, use of Ausubel's theory of meaningful learning, application of questionnaires before each class, socialization of the topics taught during class and application of assessments to verify the knowledge acquired by the student. These elements have been adapted for the study of the subject and necessarily involve some traditional classes. The results show that the application of traditional classes mixed with classes in the Flipped Classroom format promotes active participation and improves student knowledge. Thus, SAIs are adaptable to meaningful student learning when used interchangeably with traditional lessons. The result of the work contributes to the development of programs and pedagogical planning for the school unit.

Physics is a highly important discipline as it explains many phenomena in our world. However, in high school, students often perceive classes as overly theoretical and uninspiring, filled with formulas and disconnected from their daily lives. Additionally, many students struggle with mathematics and logical reasoning, further complicating the learning of Physics. The lack of resources and physical infrastructure in schools also limits the execution of practical experiments, which could make teaching more effective and engaging. To address these challenges, research has explored the use of digital games and simulators in Physics education. This study aimed to develop an educational product for third-year high school students, focusing on electrical circuits and their components. Digital games, a board game, and practical activities with simulators were employed. The research, based on Vygotsky's learning theories, was conducted in a public school. The results indicate that this approach was wellreceived by students, who reported improvements in learning and interest in the content. Therefore, this work suggests that the use of games and simulators can be an effective alternative in high school Physics education, helping students better understand the concepts and become more engaged in the subject.

In summary, the research explored matters related to pedagogical strategies and the topics addressed by physics teachers in the context of the teaching-learning process involving both educators and students in Physics classes. Of note is the perception that students consider the discipline of physics to be complex and difficult to comprehend, leading them to dislike the subject from an early age. The research proposed the use of interdisciplinary materials that relate physics to sports practices, such as soccer, aiming to make the concepts of basic mechanics more understandable and engaging. The objectives of the work included assessing students' prior knowledge of mechanics, exploring classical mechanics phenomena in soccer, developing an interdisciplinary pedagogical handbook that relates to soccer practice, and verifying the assimilation of concepts through text production activities and debates. The research took place at Uneouro School in Ouro Preto do Oeste, Rondônia, Brazil, with high school students. A qualitative approach was used, applying an interdisciplinary educational product that relates classical mechanics and soccer. The study was classified as participatory action research, involving the analysis of learning challenges. The results showed that the proposed didactic sequence resulted in a significant increase in students' interest and engagement in physics classes. The students exhibited greater participation and interaction in the lessons, and the diversified resources such as texts, images, videos, and simulators contributed to a more dynamic and interactive learning experience. It is considered that the pedagogical, participatory, and collaborative approach promoted active knowledge construction. The data indicate that the didactic sequence can be an effective tool in physics education, providing meaningful learning. The contextualization of physical concepts and their relation to everyday situations facilitated student understanding. However, it is emphasized that the implementation of the same requires careful preparation on the part of teachers, considering the students' profile and adapting resources and approaches. Therefore, the study indicated that the proposed didactic sequence can contribute significantly to physics education.

As science evolves, the teaching-learning process, mainly in physics, challenges the teacher to develop strategies with non-traditional methodologies that facilitate the understanding of the contents by the students. So in this work, an educational product was developed - a handout containing an experimental script that aims to improve and encourage learning about waves and electromagnetism. The implementation of the product was carried out through experimental classes, the students were able to relate previous knowledge with new concepts, interacting with each other, mediated by the teacher, during the assembly of a portable pocket AM/FM mini radio kit and in the installation of a galena radio, one of the simplest and oldest AM radio receiver circuits ever built. The application was divided into five stages and had the participation of a group of third year students from the State Elementary and hight School Carlos Drummond de Andrade, in Cacoal city, RO. The comparison between the results of questionnaire 1 – assessment of prior knowledge about waves and electromagnetism and the results of questionnaire 2 – assessment of learning about waves and electromagnetism after application of the product, showed a positive performance in understanding the contents covered. Finally, the results of the opinion questionnaire - evaluation of the research project in the students' perception confirmed the good acceptance of the methodology adopted and that the use of experimental practices is effective for a more meaningful learning in Physics.

Research in the Brazilian educational field has advanced in recent years, especially with regard to the development of methodologies aimed at improving the teaching-learning process. In the interim, the field of physics has also been looking for alternatives to promote more dynamic teaching using various pedagogical tools, such as digital technologies. In this respect, this paper presents as an educational product a suggested didactic sequence for teaching Geometric Optics, proposed for the second year of secondary school, which includes an application developed to allow a virtual simulation of converging and diverging spherical lenses, called "Code Lens", as well as a handout called "Exploring Geometric Optics", designed to guide the classes during the application. The purpose of applying this sequence is to search for meaningful learning, a concept that belongs to David Ausubel's theory, as opposed to mechanical learning, which is so prevalent in teaching today. The Problematization Methodology is used, using vision anomalies as a starting point for the development of lessons. In this way, the present research sought, through the application, to teach physics in a more dynamic and exploratory way, allowing the learner to have a broad view of the subject and verify its everyday applicability, investigating the benefits for the teaching process through the use of digital technology allied to the Problematization Methodology. During the course of the activities, it became apparent that the students showed greater interest and motivation in taking part in the lessons, due to the use of technology in the classroom, which they also expressed through a questionnaire of opinions and one to verify their learning, as well as the creation of concept maps. The results showed that a good proportion of the students assimilated the content satisfactorily, indicating the viability of reproducing the suggested sequence in the classroom
