Abstract
In today's world, students should not be disregarded as they have a direct and immediate relationship with new technologies, and an invasion of images is generally present in social life, and specifically in the classroom. These movements are argued in favour of more dynamic, interdisciplinary, contextualized activities and supported by the educational media. In this sense this paper aims to present and discuss a strategy that articulates the production of photo images during physical modelling of a scientific school apparatus named Daniell cell. Methodologically the photo images were analysed from an adapted taxonomy, complemented with semi-structured interviews and questionnaires. The results indicate that the proposed strategy improves the understanding of the subject content as well as the interest and motivation to work, however, also reveals the need to promote visual literacy in chemistry and natural science classes.
