SUBSUMERS IN MATHEMATICS AND MEANINGFUL LEARNING: APPLICATIONS TO THE WORDWALL.NET PLATFORM

Abstract

Mathematical content subsumers in Meaningful Learning processes applied to Physics represent an approach that highlights the importance of students' prior knowledge in the learning process. In this context, this article seeks to analyze, through a case study, qualitatively addressing the prior knowledge of high school students in a state public school in Bahia using the Wordwall.net platform. The specific objectives include analyzing the relationship between mathematical knowledge and Physics learning and presenting the prior organizers based on the teaching guide. To achieve these objectives, a methodology based on a literature review on the topics covered is used, including Ausubel's theoretical proposal and the concepts and applications of content related to the Physics discipline, associated with the development of teaching sequences. Introducing concepts and applications in the study of Kinematics. Finally, an educational product is presented that is associated with the time in which it is recognized that mathematical language plays a fundamental role in the understanding of Physics, with the interrelation between the contents covered being common and it is expected that the observation of students' reports and the analysis of applied activities will provide a significant data collection for the study.
