Uso de vídeos didáticos como estratégia de ensino de física para alunos surdos.

Abstract

Deaf education has been widely discussed in Brazil in recent years, mainly due to the recognition of the Brazilian Sign Language (Libras), through law nº 10.436/2002, which defined guidelines regarding specific elements regarding the development of the Deaf subject. This work is the result of concern about the lack of didactic and pedagogical materials in the teaching and learning process of deaf students. Thus, in order to contribute to the improvement of this scenario, we proposed to answer the following question: what didactic support material, intended for deaf high school students, can be developed in order to enable a better understanding of the difference between the signs that define the basic concepts of kinematics and mechanics from those used daily? Faced with this challenge, the objective of this work was to develop six didactic videos that could contemplate deaf students in understanding the concepts of physics, specifically kinematics and mechanics, such as: Velocity, Acceleration, Inertia, Force and Work. With regard to methodology, in order to achieve the objectives of this study, we chose to carry out a research of an applied nature, and, regarding its objectives, we chose to adopt a research of an exploratory nature. This work is based on the need to bring new technological tools to the teaching of deaf students. Through these videos, physical concepts were discussed in a clear and objective way. Using an informal and relaxed language, the videos are available on the YouTube channel and application, which makes access to them very easy.
