Abstract:
The study of spin 1/2 through the Stern-Gerlach experiment is one of the parts of a work developed in the classroom with students of the 3rd year of high school. The work begins with the theoretical discussion based on the concept of spin, some aspects about the projections and consolidating the discussion with the Stern-Gerlach experiment. We used the experiment in the virtual form of the precession of spin 1/2, highlighting its importance to complement the initial discussion in an applied way. In general, the approach was based on project proposals, making the students, who are now called student-researchers, develop the ability to develop research work and a sense of belonging in the educational process. We conclude this work by presenting the analysis and discussion of the results and emphasizing the salutary way, whenever possible, for the teacher to approach work that involves projects and distributes in the division of groups to aim at success in the teaching-learning relationship.
