This didactic proposal is based on detailed study of the manuscripts left by Leonardo Da Vinci in his famous codices, of his great assortment of machines designs will be chosen one with enough complexity to be analysed by teachers and students with the purpose of propitiating learning of physics. The teacher is expected to be able to organize the design of a Da Vinci machine, and prepare material for knowledge construction by students. In addition to studying the mechanical structure of the drawing and applying its mechanical reasoning to explain its possible functioning and their possible uses in everyday life. The didactic approach is based on the study of relation Science, Technology and Society.
