En este artículo presentamos una propuesta para la enseñanza de las ondas en física, basada en el software gratuito de Google Earth. Aprovechando que éste es un gran repositorio de imágenes satelitales interesantes, utilizamos las fotografías de este recurso para ilustrar la física de las ondas del agua y el principio de Huygens en fenómenos naturales que ocurren en los ríos y el mar. Con física básica, explicamos algunas de las princi-pales características de las playas y las propiedades de las ondas en las cercanías a las orillas. El objetivo de estas sugerencias es lograr que la física de ondas sea un tema más atractivo para los estudiantes de bachillerato y universidad, asimismo que el proceso de aprendizaje en el aula sea más participativo.

In this paper, we present a proposal for teaching wave physics based on free software Google Earth. Taking advantage of its wide source of interesting satellite images, we use Google Earth photos to illustrate the physics of water waves and the Huygens principle in natural phenomena that occurs on sea and rivers. With basic physics, we explain the main characteristics of some beach structures and waves properties near the shore. The aim of this suggestion is to make wave physics a subject more attractive to high school and university students and the process of its learning more participative. |
