Analogy among electrical potential differenc eand gravitational dotencial difference on the teaching physics

Abstract

The current research proposes to create a strategy that enables solid learning of the topicof electrical potential, through an analogy between electrical and gravitational potentials. The proposed activity conceives the use of low-cost materials with the objective of bringing physical knowledge closer to the students’ daily lives. This is because a certain lack of interest in Physics has been perceived in the focus population of this study, which in some way is contradictory, since thepresence of this science in our daily lives is manifested in the various activities that we carry out.in the context in which we are inserted. As well as, in the widespread use of new information andcommunication technologies to which the human species has been having access in recent years. For its part, for the creation of the aforementioned strategy, the use. The methodology includes a review of the available literature on the subject and has a qualitative-quantitative tendency, referring to the collected data’s analysis during the experience. The results shows that there were better students performances during the second stage of the research process. Which allows us to conclude that teaching Physics through analogies developed by the teachers of this subject enables better learning of this science to the extent that scientific and everyday knowledge are linked.
