Description
During Basic Education in Mexico, we seek to develop scientific thinking. Students are also expected to understand and explain physical phenomena through interaction with the environment. The objective of this article is to share the didactic experience implementing the use of a device, called Bounce Light System, designed to teach light reflection at school level and develop scientific thinking.
The analysis of the experience was developed in three phases:1) design of the device, 2) implementation of the teaching resource and 3) results of the implementation. The participants were students between eight and ten years old who were studying primary education.
