O uso de atividades experimentais como auxílio no processo de ensino-aprendizagem das funções inorgânicas ácidos e bases

Abstract

This research aims to analyze the use of experimental activities in the teaching-learning process of the inorganic functions of acids and bases, using alternative materials from students' daily lives. The research was carried out in a 1st year high school class. The methodological approach adopted was qualitative, which included the application of expository classes and experimental practices, with the subsequent application of a questionnaire to assess students' understanding of acid and base content and experimental activities. The results demonstrated, therefore, that the integration of experimental activities in teaching the functions of inorganic acids and bases not only facilitated the understanding of these concepts, but also promoted a more engaging and effective learning environment. We conclude that experimentation as part of the educational process strengthens the relationship between theory and practice, allowing students a deeper and more applied understanding of the contents studied, in addition to contributing to more effective and motivating learning, facilitating the understanding of abstract concepts and promoting students' interest in the subject of Chemistry.
