FALLING BODIES FURTHER THAN THE EYES CAN SEE: CONTRIBUTIONS OF STROBE IMAGES AND VIDEO ANALYSIS FOR SCIENTIFIC LITERACY

ABSTRACT:

We present the results of a research that has been developing investigative didactic interventions with the use of strobe images and video analysis, and trying to confirm how they contribute to scientific literacy. Strobe images and video analysis allow teaching in different contexts, because with their use by the teacher, students investigate real movements that were previously filmed and transformed into didactic material. Considering the potential of these resources for scientific learning, we investigate how their use in an intervention on the fall of bodies contributes to scientific literacy. In the analysis of the dialogues among students during the construction of the arguments in response to the problem-situation proposed by the teacher, we identified a large number of indicators of scientific literacy.
