Uma abordagem experimental do efeito estufa no ensino médio utilizando internet das coisas

Abstract

This work aims to propose a low-cost experimental activity using Internet of Things (IoT) technology to address the greenhouse effect in Physics education. The study seeks to develop scientific and technological skills and competencies in high school students, in accordance with the National Common Curricular Base (BNCC). The proposed methodology uses the ESP32 microcontroller as a tool for data collection on the greenhouse effect, aiming to foster understanding and reflection on the causes and consequences of this phenomenon, as well as to stimulate the formation of a critical and responsible environmental awareness. The proposed experimental activity integrates theory and practice, allowing students to have an interactive and applicable learning experience in their daily lives. The use of the ESP32 enables the creation of a real-time monitoring system of the variables involved in the greenhouse effect, focusing on temperature. With this, students can visualize and analyze the collected data, understanding more concretely the impacts of the greenhouse effect. The development of the experimental activity was guided by the need to meet the BNCC guidelines, which emphasize the importance of scientific and technological education in high school. The proposed approach seeks to develop practical skills and stimulate critical thinking in students. The integration of IoT in Physics education allows the creation of more dynamic learning environments, where students can explore scientific concepts in a practical and contextualized manner. The use of emerging technologies, such as the ESP32, contributes to the formation of an education more connected with contemporary demands and the needs of an increasingly technological society. The expected results include improving students' understanding of scientific concepts related to the greenhouse effect and increasing engagement in sustainability issues. The proposed experimental activity aims to demonstrate that it is possible to teach Science in an innovative and effective way, using accessible and low-cost technological resources. The dissertation concludes that the implementation of experimental activities based on IoT can significantly contribute to scientific education in high school, preparing students to face environmental and technological challenges of the future.
