La Galería de Galileo: Videos de experimentos para la enseñanza de la Física

Abstract

The Fondef TicEdu project "La Galería de Galileo: Experimentos Interactivos de Física para la Enseñanza Media" aims to support the teaching-learning process in physics courses in public high-schools of Chile. Aiming to this purpose we built a gallery of experimental situations videos, along with inquiry-based guides, which will be used by teachers in their classes. In this way, the possibility of teaching Physics through the analysis of simple experiments makes it possible to alleviate in part the absence of laboratories in Chilean high schools, thus providing teachers with a tool that allows them to contextualize their classes and that allows the students to learn in an inquiry-based environment, making predictions, formulating hypothesis and testing them against the results of experiments.
