Abstract

DINIZ, Izabela  and  FARIA, Alexandre F.. Profile of didactic resources for the teaching of mechanics published in Brazilian journals dedicated to physics teaching. Rev. enseñ. fís. [online]. 2021, vol.33, n.1, pp.61-70. ISSN 0326-7091.

In this work, proposals of resources for teaching mechanics topics published in the last 12 years in three brazilian journals dedicated to the teaching of physics were identified and analyzed. These journals have good circulation among teachers and researchers and are well evaluated by Qualis/CAPES, which is a system for evaluating the scientific production of graduate programs in the country. The search returned 56 articles that were categorized into eight dimensions of analysis. The results show proposals of teaching resources with different types of approaches, on various topics of mechanics and directed to students from elementary to university education. Most of the proposals are easy to execute and of low cost, well designed and with the potential to promote student engagement in Physics classes. However, most of the analyzed articles do not present an evaluation or discussion about the educational impacts of the resources they propose.

Keywords : Literature review; Mechanics; Teaching resources; Teaching of physics.
