Elementary Aspects of the Structure, Dynamics and Entropy of Black Holes in High School
The work presents the elementary aspects of black holes addressed in the classroom, in particular those of Schwarzschild and superficially those of Kerr. The research comprises part of one of the works carried out on the "Study of the quantization of space-time applied to the entropy of black holes" with 23 students of the 3rd year of high school in São Cristóvão, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The project is part of several introduced subjects on modern and contemporary physics, as well as frontier research topics. The student starts to have a student-researcher posture and based on Ausubel and Bruner's learning theories, they develop significant learning and receive new information and concepts at an elementary level, conditioning them to a critical and reflective posture. We carried out the activity in an expository way, discussing the structure, dynamics and entropy of black holes, making this type of approach to increase the understanding of the importance of physics topics such as mechanical energy and thermodynamics, involving compact objects. We carried out a questionnaire and collected data to verify the performance of the students and, in a non-formal way, the observation of behavior in the conduct of activities
