Experimentos, elaboração e reelaborações na construção da teoria eletromagnética: linhas fisica de força, campos, paramagnetismo e diamagnetismo

Abstract

Abstract

This study basically aimed to identify paths and reflections at the interfaces applied research in the History of Science and Teaching, theoretical-experimental procedure at the Royal Institution of Great Britain (RI), London, from 1831 to 1854. Main focus: The doctrine and nature of Michael Faraday’s experiments concerning the questions and use of models, argumentation, and investigations present in Experimental Researches in Electricity and Observations on Mental Education (1854) and two chapters by the author of this study entitled “Michael Faraday (1791-1867): different ways of thinking about the experiment” and “‘Polarity Anomalies’, new Languages, ‘Physical Chemistry’, light and the ‘colloidal effect’ in Michael Faraday”. Aiming to reconcile the interfaces of the didactic pedagogical tendencies in Teaching and the perspectives in History of Science, strategies for the insertion of the History of Science and Teaching, in Degree and Bachelor courses, emphasis on the study structure and construction of the electromagnetic theory, that is, the importance of lines of physical force, electric and magnetic fields, paramagnetism and diamagnetism. Attention was intensified to a kind of dynamics, emphatic, and utilitarian rudimentary geometry, evaluating the configurations and behavior inherent to experiments methodologically submitted to the imaginary lines of electromagnetic forces. Interactive processes, planned, multidisciplinary dialogues, taught in four blocks of fifteen minutes each and two stages of open discussion to the participating groups on the interpretation of a theoretical phase from the perspective of emotions between History of Science and Teaching for the insertion of theoretical foundations, direct, dynamics, and contextualized language.

Keywords: Electromagnetism; History of Science and Teaching; Michael Faraday.
