Design of a multidisciplinary laboratory teaching proposal for the study of thermodynamics

Abstract

This paper presents an analysis of the results obtained by evaluating a multidisciplinary teaching proposal developed in Physics II at Facultad Regional Rafaela. It consists on a practical laboratory task for the study of gas laws and the first law of thermodynamics, which allows students to integrate and deepen their knowledge of Chemistry, Physics and Maths. Two research methods are used, which are described in the work. The results obtained demonstrate that some of the objectives set were achieved, but the design developed in 2018 needs some improvements. The redesign should include a guide with activities and the incorporation of more tools and real experiences.
