Apresentamos um recorte de uma pesquisa desenvolvida no seio do Programa Institucional de Bolsas de Iniciação Científica (PIBIC)[1] e do grupo de pesquisa Laboratório Científico de Aprendizagem, Pesquisa e Ensino (LACAPE), vinculado ao Departamento de Educação da Universidade Federal Rural de Pernambuco (UFRPE). Em particular, temos por objetivo, neste artigo, analisar as possibilidades de uso do recurso “Explorador de Igualdade: Básico”, disponível na plataforma digital Physics Education Technology – PhET Interactive Simulations, da Universidade do Colorado Boulder, à luz das habilidades da Base Nacional Comum Curricular (BNCC) e do Currículo de Pernambuco, quanto ao ensino das propriedades de igualdade e princípios de equivalência. A abordagem da pesquisa é qualitativa e do tipo documental. A coleta de dados ocorreu a partir de informações gerais disponíveis na PhET, tais como: descrições do recurso, manual de instrução, planos de atividades, planos de aula, dentre outros. Além do manuseio do “Explorador de Igualdade: Básico”, pelo qual buscamos interpretar e elaborar possíveis simulações interativas, à luz das habilidades dos documentos curriculares. Dentre os resultados, destacamos quatro habilidades (dos anos iniciais e/ou finais do Ensino Fundamental) que podem ser desenvolvidas a partir do uso do “Explorador de Igualdade: Básico”, a saber: (EF03MA11) / (EF03MA11PE); (EF04MA14) / (EF04MA14PE); (EF05MA10) / (EF05MA10PE); e (EF06MA14) / (EF06MA14PE). Acreditamos, portanto, que o recurso em tela pode incitar o desenvolvimento do pensamento algébrico dos alunos, a depender dos modos de exploração, em sala de aula ou em outros cenários didáticos. Palavras-chave: Propriedades de igualdade; Princípios de equivalência; Ensino Fundamental; Pensamento algébrico; Tecnologias digitais.   [1] Projeto de pesquisa financiado pela Fundação de Amparo à Ciência e Tecnologia do Estado de Pernambuco (FACEPE) e pelo Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq).

In this study, conceptual and algebra-based physics students were engaged in scientific inquiry using Physics Education Technology (PhET) interactive simulations via semester-long group projects. The instructor and students used the Scientific Abilities Assessment Rubrics (SAAR) to evaluate project presentations and papers (formative assessment). The overall research project was evaluated using Lab Skills Self-Assessment (LSSA) survey (pre and post) and the post reflection survey. The Science Process Skills Inventory (SPSI) was used to analyze some of the students’ responses to the reflection survey. Quantitative analysis of the LSSA survey showed a large effect size for both conceptual and algebra-based physics students (Cohen’s d 0.8, in both courses). Qualitative analysis of the reflection surveys supported this apparent huge gain in lab skills and revealed considerable positive students’ experiences of the PhET simulations (88% of students indicated positive satisfaction).

Teaching Physics

A particularly important aspect of learning physics is using models of physical objects, processes and phenomena. Modeling is an important component of learning and cognitive activity. This determines its importance for the formation and development of students’ knowledge and skills. The Physics Education Technology (PhET) project creates useful simulations for teaching and learning physics and makes them freely available on the PhET web site: http://phet.colorado.edu The simulations are interactive, animated and visual. Some ideas for their using in physics education are presented. They can be used in various of ways, including demonstration experiment as part of lecture, student group work or individual worksheets, homework assignments or labs. The possibility for using simulations in remote education is considered. Students are given interactive assignments. They include interactive problems in the form of computer simulation and questions related to it. The students work with data which they analyze and present tabular and graphically. This approach suggest activities based on enquiry. In result their motivation and interest in physics increases.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk (1) mengetahui dan menganalisi hubungan gaya gravitasi dengan massa benda dan jaraknya (2) mendeskripsikan kelayakan simulasi virtual PhET dalam pembelajaran SMA dengan materi gravitasi. Penelitain ini menggunakan methode Eksperimen melalui alat digital yaitu simulasi virtual PhET Colorado dengan materi gaya gravitasi Newton dan menggunakan method kajian pustaka. Hasil penelitain menunjukan bahwa (1) gaya gravitasi berbanding lurus dengan massa benda, dan berbanding terbalik dengan jarak kuadrat. (2) simulasi virtual PhET Colorado ini layak digunakan sebagai pembelajaran didalam kelas sebagai penganti praktikum pada materi gravitasi. Alasan kami memilih simulasi virtual menggunakan PhET Colorado karena praktikum untuk materi gravitasi memerlukan alat dan bahan yang cukup lumayan, kami mengantisipasinya dengan laboratorium virtual, karena setiap peserta didik pada abad 21, sudah menggunakan teknologi dan pemilihan PhET ini sangatlah mudah untuk diakses.

Abstrak: Perkembangan dunia teknologi dan informasi yang semakin pesat dapat memberikan alternatif bagi pendidik untuk menggunakan berbagai media pembelajaran salah satunya yaitu Physics Education and Technology (PhET). Tujuan penulisan artikel ini untuk menjelaskan tentang 1). Efektivitas penerapan media simulasi PhET dalam proses pembelajaran fisika, 2) Strategi penerapan media simulasi PhET dalam proses pembelajaran fisika, serta 3) Kelebihan dan kekurangan media simulasi PhET dalam proses pembelajaran fisika. Penulisan artikel ini menggunakan metode kualitatif berdasarkan filosofi post positivisme dengan teknik pengumpulan data berupa tri-anggulasi (gabungan), yaitu penelitian kepustakaan melalui pengumpulan data, terutama data verbal seperti buku, artikel, catatan, dan berbagai literatur ilmiah lainnya. Data yang dikumpulkan kemudian dianalisis secara induktif. Berdasarkan hasil tinjauan pustaka, analisis data, dan diskusi dapat disimpulkan bahwa 1). Media simulasi PhET secara efektif digunakan untuk membantu guru dan siswa dalam mempelajari konsep fisika, 2) media simulasi PhET sangat baik dikombinasikan dengan model pembelajaran inkuiri, dan 3) media simulasi PhET memiliki keuntungan yaitu efektif dalam menjelaskan konsep fisika yang sifatnya abstrak, sedangkan kekurangannya adalah bahwa implementasi di sekolah sangat tergantung pada unit komputer yang tersedia.Kata kunci: Simulasi Interaktif PhET, Inkuiri Terbimbing, Pembelajaran FisikaAbstract: The rapid development of technology and information world can provide an alternative for educators to use various learning media, one of which is Physics Education and Technology (PhET).

This study aimed to find out if Physics Education Technology (PhET) simulations can improve the performance of the Baybay City Senior High School STEM students on the selected topic in physics, that is, electrodynamics. This study utilized a quasi-experimental type where pre-test and post-test are multiple choice type of test and involved 72 STEM students. The grouping of the students was identified based on their sections, one section served as the control group and other is the experimental group. Experimental group is allowed to play the PhET simulation for an hour utilizing their vacant period every day, while the control is not exposed to any activity that intervene leading to the creation of formal construct of ideas in electrodynamics. Result showed that mean scores of the control and experimental groups does not imply a significant difference, despite of the interest shown by the students in playing the said simulation. Perhaps, students are more attracted to simulation in which they have gone through during their lectures. Furthermore, study shows that the performance of students before and after exposure to PhET simulation does not necessarily pose a big difference but indicates a slight improvement to their performances.
