This paper examines and reflects on the explanatory resources that are used in high school physics classes for studying the topic of energy. Explanatory resources are a means of constructing and negotiating meaning. The research is an instrumental case study focusing on four years of high school physics classes on energy. The theoretical principles of sociocultural approaches and conversation analysis are taken as benchmarks for understanding how we construct and reconstruct meanings (on energy).

Los recursos explicativos son un medio para construir y negociar significados. La investigación desarrollada es un estudio instrumental de casos: cuatro cursos de educación secundaria en las clases de Física donde se estudia el tema energía. Los principios teóricos de los enfoques socioculturales y los del análisis conversacional son tomados como referentes para entender cómo se construyen y reconstruyen los significados (sobre la energía). La identificación de los recursos que se emplean en estos procesos de construcción de significados es de importancia para promover la comprensión de determinados fenómenos científicos abordados en el currículo. Entre los recursos más empleados en su explicación se distingue la definición y el empleo de las causas de los fenómenos. También se puede afirmar que las intervenciones del docente, con su habla y con las situaciones didácticas que propone, son determinantes para cierto tipo de explicaciones y la aparición o ausencia de otros recursos asociados con las explicaciones. 2013-08-30 2021-06-03T03:04:24Z 2021-06-03T03:04:24Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://redie.uabc.mx/index.php/redie/article/view/449 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12930/6103 spa https://redie.uabc.mx/index.php/redie/article/view/449/655 https://redie.uabc.mx/index.php/redie/article/view/449/596 Derechos de autor 2019 Revista Electrónica de Investigación Educativa text/html application/pdf REDIE es una publicación del Instituto de Investigación y Desarrollo Educativo (IIDE).

description This paper examines and reflects on the explanatory resources that are used in high school physics classes for studying the topic of energy. Explanatory resources are a means of constructing and negotiating meaning. The research is an instrumental case study focusing on four years of high school physics classes on energy.

The identification of the resources used in the process of meaning construction is of importance for understanding certain scientific phenomena addressed in the curricula.
