Física e música: o uso de instrumentos musicais como recurso didático para uma abordagem lúdica dos fenômenos físicos envolvidos na produção e propagação do som

Abstract

To debate the teaching of Physics is to put interdisciplinarity on the agenda. Project-based learning is important for students to identify how aspects of their daily lives are connected with other sciences. The general objective that supported this research was to analyze the teaching-learning process of the physical phenomena involved in the production and propagation of sound, establishing a connection with music, through a playful and potentially significant approach, focusing on wind musical instruments. and strings. This is a qualitative research carried out with 10 high school students. Initially didactic kits were made, which were delivered to the participants. In the development of the research, two questionnaires were applied, before and after the didactic workshop, which took place through the Google Meet platform. In the workshop, it was discussed how the production and propagation of sound in the violin, guitar, recorder and PVC flute takes place. The virtual simulation tool, Phet, was used to support the workshop, to demonstrate the behavior and characteristics of a sound wave. Through the questionnaires it was found that the participants understood the functioning of the presented musical instruments and their relationship with Physics. Presentation of the didactic workshop had a positive effect, as a way of teaching physics, leaving the traditionalist and expository method, placing on the agenda the interdisciplinarity between Physics and Music in the formative context of the participants.
