Studies and researches that have been seeking to contribute to changes in the teaching of Physics in High School, especially regarding the teaching-learning method, have benefited little from the contributions of developmental teaching as an alternative to promote these changes. This article presents results of a research that sought to answer the question: can the use of developmental teaching principles contribute to qualitative changes in the learning and development of high school physics students? The general objective was to verify the occurrence of changes in the thought of high school students in relation to a concept of Physics taught from theoretical principles of developmental education. The empirical research consisted of a formative didactic experiment with the Heat concept, guided by principles of the theories of Vigotski, Davydov, Elkonin, Hedegaard and Chaiklin. The formative didactic experiment took place in a federal educational institution located in the interior of the state of Goiás (Brazil). Twenty-two students from the discipline of Physics, from the second year of high school integrated to the technical course, participated in the research, in addition to the professor of the discipline, who had knowledge of the theories foundations of the research. For data collection, observation of classes, interviews and analysis of the task performed by the students during the formative didactic experiment were used. Only one student, for personal and emotional reasons, did not participate and there was no change in her knowledge.The results show that the students who effectively performed the heat concept learning activity by the proposed method, advanced in the zone of proximal development in relation to Heat and formed a theoretical concept of dialectical nature.
