El estudio de accidentes de tránsito como vía para generar aprendizajes del principio del trabajo y la energía cinética.

Abstract

The following research project, is oriented in the modeling as methodology of teaching of Physics; To carry out this methodology, it is used structured physical models and applied in the investigation of traffic accidents, specifically associated with the work principle and kinetic energy (object of learning of the present project). In order to carry out the methodological intervention of teaching, two instruments were constructed, applied and analyzed: the first one is the instrument of ideas on the principle of work and the kinetic energy IPTEC; The second is a Closed Question TEST that categorizes student learning levels. Also, a didactic unit was built contextualized in the physical investigation of traffic accidents and supported in the ICT resources.
