Description
In this work we want to improve the level of learning for the subject of a ball bouncing on flat ground. We have a group of 15 engineering students. By applying an active learning methodology supported with simulations, we get a better interest in the subject, since the behavior of the phenomenon is exposed, and the initial conditions can be controlled. We show the Hake factor obtained with this learning strategy. We hope that these results will be useful in showing the advantages of using active teaching methodologies supported by simulations in the education of some principles of mechanics.
