Popis: Across the country is being widely spread the use of energy renewable, one of the clearest examples of this is to obtain energy by the sun's rays, as well as the latest advances in wind turbine deployment in the South and Northeast. Thus, in order to encourage high school students to engage in the study of science and research development intertwined with energy efficiency. The Laboratório de Engenhocas (hereafter, translated: Gadget Lab) extension program of the Federal University of Pará (UFPA/CAMTUC), approved projects CNPq (National Council for Scientific and Technological Development) in order to insert into in state high schools of the municipality the methodology PBL (Project Based Learning) in order teach the students to learn, be proactive and spark interest in the field of applied sciences. Thus, students sought to develop activities that contribute to minimize the problems of society, thus, was the built and implemented a Low Cost Solar Heater in a single family residence Tucuruí where it was possible to analyze its feasibility and efficiency.
