Uma proposta de um Objeto Educacional Digital para a apresentação da Teoria da Relatividade Especial

Abstract

This work consists of the presentation of a proposal for the insertion of the Special Theory of Relativity applying digital technologies (more specifically simulations) in High School. The motivation for the theme choice was, beyond recommendations from official documents, such as BNCC, and other works already produced in the field, the fact that the Special Theory of Relativity has some counterintuitive effects besides its difficult experimentation, hence the advantage of exploring it through simulations. The Ausubel learning theory will be used as the theoretical ground for the construction of a digital educational object, which will be developed with the software Godot. Following the principles of Ausubel’s theory, it is hoped that the use of simulations will provide a meaningful learning about the Special Theory of Relativity.
