Utilização de recursos digitais na preparação de estudantes para a OBFEP durante, e após, o período de pandemia da Covid 19

Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic created a scenario in which teachers had to study strategies in the active search for public school students. Considering the importance of students’ participation in the Brazilian Public School Physics Olympiad (OBFEP) test, during and after the Covid-19 pandemic period, it was thought about creating an educational product in the form of a book as study material . The pandemic has posed significant challenges to education, affecting students’ participation in extracurricular activities, such as OBFEP. Active search emerges as a fundamental strategy to identify students and encourage them to participate in this important competition, ensuring equal opportunities. Through active search it is possible to identify students with potential for OBFEP, provide the necessary support and promote motivation to study Physics. Furthermore, considering the restrictions imposed by the pandemic, the creation of an educational product in the form of a specific book for the study of OBFEP becomes a valuable tool. This book can provide structured content, examples, exercises and study strategies that help students prepare for the test, both during the pandemic period and after it ends. It is hoped that through the use of this material, students can have access to quality content at a low cost, as the proposal is to make the material available for printing or accessing it on digital devices, regardless of their location or socioeconomic condition. This dissertation discusses the educational product and how it was applied during and after the pandemic scenario, also exploring a graph generated through student reports. By addressing these topics, we seek to contribute to the promotion of inclusive education, providing public school students with the necessary support to actively participate in OBFEP and achieve better academic results in the Physics subject.
