This research is about to analyze the effects of the implementation of a virtual learning space in the homogeneous second-order differential equations applied to the modeling of the phenomenon of simple pendulum physics in the framework of the alliance with the international project World Pendulum Alliance WPA. The collection of information was carried out with a five question, using pre-test and post-test. The effectiveness of the strategy was measured with the Hake gain and the evolution of learning with the vectors of Bao. It was found that the strategy is more effective, but close to that achieved by traditional models, so that students largely achieve the proposed learning objectives. The evolution of learning suggests that students after the implementation of the strategy are marked under the model of acceptable explanation in the literature, although some participants still lean towards the incorrect model or the distracter. Therefore, it is necessary to include in the strategy a greater number of activities related to the description of the physical phenomenon to be studied and the improvement of the algebraic procedures seen in previous courses., Comment: 24 pages, in Portuguese, 7 figures
