Portable Experiments for Learning about Laws of Geometric Optics with ISLE Methodology

We will socialize the design and how to make of portable experiments to broaden learning in the field of Natural Sciences. We will describe in detail the application of the Portable Experiment (ExP) on the laws of geometric optics developed from psychopedagogical prescription of Freire, Vygostky, Ausubel and Moreira. The ExP were created from research initially related to the studies of the methodology for teaching physics using the ISLE (Investigative Science Learning Environment) methodology. Such products can be assembled and handled in the classroom or in the context of student’s homes, in classroom or online classes, constituting pedagogical experiments that can assertively help science and mathematics teachers in the context of remote education motivated by the COVID pandemic-19. This new instrument asserted itself as an assertive solution for the teaching of science and experimental mathematics in the period of the pandemic, where remote or recorded classes constituted the possible alternative to mitigate crowding, mainly because from the mediation of the pedagogical product the learning became powerful even though students were far from the laboratory infrastructure of educational institutions that adopted it in their methodological repertoire.
