Abstract

ABSTRACT: A didactic wind tunnel was designed and built as a pedagogical proposal aimed at teachers and students of a technical course in mechatronics integrated into the high school at the Federal Institute of São Paulo. The proposal aimed to analyze the learning results from the implementation of the project added to an experimental test; as well as to investigate the integration of contents and the interdisciplinarity in this didactic practice, and also present the technical-mathematical analysis involved in the construction of the equipment and the experimental test. The simultaneous and integrated approach between analysis of pedagogical practice and technical-mathematical investigation constitutes a differential of this research. Positive points arising from the pedagogical practice were evidenced and may support future didactic interactions in the development of projects with experimental testing. Besides proving existing theories about air dynamics, the proposal sought to bring students closer to the universe of applied science through a dialogic and encouraging teacher mediation, as well as providing a holistic view between theory and practice set in high school integrated with professional and technological training.
