【 摘 要 】

This work aims at investigating and proposingstrategies to improve the comprehension of Chemistry concepts by high schoolstudents. One of these strategies consists in workshops that emphasize the notionof work as a general educational principle, in the perspective of polytechniceducation. Interviews (pre and post-workshops) were used to evaluate the results.In post-workshop interviews, a significant incorporation of scientific conceptswas observed, as well as a considerable improvement in the interpretation ofexperiments.
