RESUMO

This paper presents a didactic innovation applied to the experimental work within a course of Physics for Engineers, during a period of three terms. The aim of this innovation was to work with “context” from an extended Reichenbach epistemological perspective. Physics concepts were taught, integrating the following contexts: discovery, justification, teaching and employment. It was noticed that when contexts are applied to experimental work, the disciplinary logic is broadened, as a result of linking historical, epistemological and technological aspects of the subject being taught. The students ideas about the innovation were gathered through a questionnaire and the results are included in this work. The systematic use of this innovation would require a different curricular organization at least in Physics courses for engineers.
