Souza, Isabelle M. L.; Andrade, Wilkerson L.; Sampaio, Lívia M. R. – Informatics in Education, 2022
Nowadays, solving problems is substantial for the social relationship human. Computational Thinking (CT) emerges as an interdisciplinary thought process encompassing mental abilities to help students solve and understand problems. Researchers invest in the methodological proposal of activities aimed at CT stimulation, educational approaches, and…

dos Santos, Paulo José Sena; dos Santos, Toni Fernando Mendes – Physics Education, 2021
Many researches show that students have difficulties in understanding graphics in kinematics. Some authors argue that we can use different instructional strategies to reduce these difficulties. Based on these studies, we developed and applied a didactic sequence using educational robotics to teach graphic analysis in movements in a dimension with…
