Abstract

This paper presents a literature review on the difficulties faced by students in Mechanics, carried out by consulting articles in journals, dissertations, and theses that address the subject. The research method used is a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) and the research focuses on publications in physics education, covering the first records on the subject, at the end of the 1970s, with a main emphasis on studies carried out in the last ten years and excluding the rarely cited older articles. The works found were selected because they were: highly cited articles, review articles, and recent articles in the main journals in the area (last ten years) and organized into four categories: i) spontaneous conceptions, ii) conceptual resources used by students, iii) constructivist methods and iv) engagement methods. In the works identified, it was found, for example, that there is a significant amount of publications that explore the subject, but a consolidated solution has not yet been observed. Furthermore, it is clear that the traditional methods of teaching physics contribute little to the understanding of basic concepts and that there is a shortage of studies that propose practical solutions to the problems experienced by physics teachers working in high schools. The research concentration is with higher education students, without a progressive development to address this problem from high school onwards.

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to propose the use of analogies for teaching principles of synchrotron radiation for high-school students. Analogy is an important tool for teaching new abstract subjects based on familiar content. In this paper, we suggest the use of Teaching With Analogies Strategy (TWAS), which is an approach to overcome the didactic obstacles in introducing abstract physics content to students. The authors expect that this work may  contribute to the students' understanding of synchrotron radiation, reflecting  the needs and interests of secondary school teachers.
