Do campo magnético à indução eletromagnética: aplicação de uma UEPS

Abstract

This applied, qualitative, and explanatory research aims to investigate whether Potentially Meaningful Teaching Units (PMTUs) are an appropriate methodology for teaching Faraday's Law of Electromagnetic Induction in public schools. Understanding this law is crucial for comprehending various electromagnetic phenomena present in modern technologies. As an educational product, a PMTU is developed to teach from the magnetic field to electromagnetic induction and is implemented in two high school classes in a public school in Pará State – Brazil. The results are analyzed through formative and summative assessment, with emphasis on questionnaires administered at the initial and final stages of the sequence, which are subjected to lexicographic analysis using the specific software - Iramuteq.
