Tabuleiro quântico: uma ferramenta lúdica educativa para a compreensão do modelo atômico de Bohr no ensino médio

Abstract

This paper addresses the importance of application of teaching games as an alternative method in chemistry teaching, because of his great learning motivator and facilitator character. In this context, a didactic game was developed and applied to the students of the 1st and 3rd years of high school in order to facilitate the understanding of the matter constitution models and to provide a reduction in levels of abstraction found in the study of the atomic models, particularly in the model proposed by Bohr. The introduced game is an analogy to the atom proposed by Bohr, focusing on the location of an electron in an atom according to the quantum numbers. So, questionnaires were applied before and after the game application, as well as the use of direct observation during work development and the use of assessments. The results after the analysis of the collected data shows that the proposal to innovate the teaching of chemistry through the use of educational ludic resources, aligns up significantly to the construction of knowledge in the teaching process.
