Tour virtual pelo museu a céu aberto da segunda guerra mundial: um recurso tecnológico para o ensino de história

Abstract

Technology has played an essential role in education, providing new ways of teaching and learning. In history education, the use of virtual tours allows students to explore historical sites in an immersive and interactive manner. In this context, this study proposes the development of a virtual tour for the Open-Air Museum of World War II, located in the Amapá city – AP, as a technological resource for the preservation and dissemination of historical heritage. The project used 360º images captured with a Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra smartphone, processed with Hugin software, implemented on the TourBuilder platform and published in Google Maps. The results showed that, even without the use of specialized equipment, it was possible to achieve a satisfactory immersive experience, with good image quality and smooth navigation. In addition to serving as an innovative didactic tool for history education, the virtual tour contributes to the appreciation and preservation of Amapá’s historical memory of World War II, ensuring that future generations have access to this important collection.
