Comprensiones sobre las fases de la luna a partir de historietas conceptuales contextualizadas

Abstract

This research exposes the analysis and results of a research process, regarding the teaching of Moon phases phenomenon and the relationship around the influences of such phenomenon towards habits and living conditions, with eighth-grade students at the Cambridge school, through contextualized comics. The research methodology is framed in a qualitative approach from a research-action perspective with a propositional and interpretative type. In this process, five phases were established to identify the students' world from different perspectives. Based on this, two HCCs were crated, these were entitled: "Walk in the desert" and "Let's Surf" the script of the comics was based on Learning Based on Phenomena. This study was made through content analysis, this process encouraged students to ask authentic questions and explanations towards the phenomenon, generating an approximation to the objective of the research, which was to promote evidence of learning in students, demonstrating the ability to understand information and giving a new meaning to something they believed and now based on this information, they strengthened their understanding of this phenomenon. Finally, it is concluded the use of comics as an innovative tool has an important value to reinforce the teaching process, It shows the ability to study other aspects of the context of the comic related to science, such as the law of gravitation, thermodynamic phenomena, and properties of bodies, among others.
