Abstract

This article presents a proposal that allows to address the first law of thermodynamics through the pedagogical strategy Project Based Learning (PjBL), which seeks to promote critical meaningful learning in 91 students of 8th grade of the Institución Educativa Alfonso Upegui Orozco in Medellín, Colombia. Some theoretical referents are exposed in this report and the research methodology and also, some issues of the intervention strategy are described. This report emphasizes, in some of the results obtained by applying an instrument to investigate the previous ideas of students about concepts associated with the teaching of the first law of Thermodynamics. Finally, there are some discussions about the results and some answers were compared based on the literature reviewed.
