Implementação de uma ferramenta computacional para auxílio da aprendizagem do método dos deslocamentos

Abstract

The current work intends to avaluate the contribuition on learning throught a software, guided by psychopedagogy fundations. Psychopedagogy is the study area that is dedicated to delvelop methods along with the institution and professor to solve difficulties towards the student’s learning process. In this work, a proposal is made estructured in the implementation of a computational resource in the teaching of displacement method for structural analysis, in the civil engeneering course, based on creation of a computational tool in Fortran language, to solve flat trusses, at first for aducational use. The approach is abaout the structural analysis and all it’s concepts of stiffness in matrix form, besides presenting pedagogical theories that guide the aid of teaching-learning process. With pedagogical analysis, it is verified that the developed softwre presents itself a tool capable of helping on learning the displacement method, providing improvements on absortion and comprehensiom of the content.
