SUMMARY:

The photoelectric effect was discovered at the end of the 19th century by Hertz and explained by Albert Einstein in the beginning of the 20th century by adhering to Max Planck's ideas about the quantization of energy emitted by blackbody harmonic oscillators, marrying the experimental bias to the theoretical one. This phenomenon evidenced the corpuscular character of light and it is inserted in the beginnings of quantum physics, being necessary for an understanding of quantum physics within a historical line of physics. One of the great challenges of education in the 21st century is the recognition of the student's characteristics, which are inseparable from a society marked by hyperconnectivity and collective intelligence, which, according to Lévy (1999), constitutes the main engine of cyberculture. These individuals are called digital natives. This digital “bubble” influenced the characteristics of generation Z: the way they consume, behave, work and, mainly, how they relate and learn. This generation does not respond well to unilateral relationships and, consequently, to traditional teaching. A type of DICT (Digital Information and Communication Technology) that this present work indicates as a possible confrontation for mediation (adaptation of language between teachers and students of that generation), is a didactic sequence set in resources of a computational simulator, seeking the decentralization of the narrative and memoristic perspective to the detriment of that of mediation as dialogue and criticism. According to Ferreira et al. (2021), simulators do not replace reality but make it easier to understand situations that require a high level of abstraction. Tavares (2008) points out that the use of computer simulations streamlines physical systems that in traditional teaching are approached in a static way. This dissertation has the general objective of investigating the effectiveness of a Potentially Significant Unit (UEPS) applied in high school, in the light of David Ausubel's theory of learning (1968), which proposes the use of a computational simulator developed by the University of Colorado available at PhET platform, for teaching the photoelectric effect, via UEPS, as an advanced organization tool within the Theory of Meaningful Learning. The educational product was structured in four fifty-minute classes, applied and evaluated in a private school in the Federal District in the month of October and November in 2021 as part of a translational research (Ferreira et al., 2021).
