Abstract

The contextualization of the scientific concepts presents itself as a pedagogical strategy to make the curricular contents socially relevant and to promote greater articulation with the experiences, knowledge and conceptions of the students. These aspects must be present throughout the formation of future teachers and it is fundamental to promote opportunities to experience pedagogical approaches that lead to the attitudes and conceptions that are expected be developed with their future students. In this context, it was proposed the incorporation of themes in a discipline offered for the Licentiate degree in Physics-IFUSP, which deals with oscillatory phenomena and mechanical waves, since these phenomena are observed in other areas of physics, with applications in several areas of science. The themes were chosen in order to illustrate the application of the scientific concepts addressed in the discipline in other fields of knowledge, such as in the study of climate, geophysics, astronomy and economy, and due to their social and environmental implications. In the planning of the discipline, groups of students became responsible for presenting these topics in the form of short seminars inserted in the classes. An interdisciplinary space was opened in which the students prepared the didactic material, which demanded, on their part, a reflection on the learning process and the relation between the content of the discipline and its connection with current issues with social, economic and technological dimensions. This environment favored the sharing of students’ knowledge, the creation of stronger social bonds in the classroom and the increase in the self-esteem of these students that contribute to the permanence in the course.
