摘要

Physics in Comics is a project that search to promote discussions among students and teacher about phenomena and scientific themes through comics or strips. These comics are accompanied by everyday questions related to Physics. The selected theme was Optics, focusing on reflection in plane mirrors. In developing the set of strips and questions, the relation between text and image, from the perspective of the theory of comics, is taken into consideration and also want to help work the critical skills of students. Assuming the premise that they have aimed to educate society, we want to use them  in Physics teaching reflectively. Among the characteristics of comics or strips it can be said that they show high level of information, and they can be explored by the teacher and discussed with students. Comics have been shown to stimulate the development of the reading habits, thereby enriching the students vocabulary. Therefore, we believe that these strips and activities proposed in the classroom helped in the critical education of students. As the comics (or strips) are immersed in our daily lives, it is fair and appropriate to use them to teach and present Science and some everyday situations. This article presents some strips and objectives in Physics teaching, and to explain how they can be worked by teachers.
