This study aims to understand how the construction of a compass in a classroom can help students to understand basic concepts of geography, astronomy and magnetism, as well as to perceive the social amplitude of repercussion that a new technology brings to society. The research was developed in a class of 36 students of the 1st year of High School of a public school in the city of Belo Horizonte/MG. The methodological course took place in two moments: four classes on theory and practice towards the construction of six compasses, and a class in which there was a plenary with the students discussing current technologies. Law 13,415 established guiding parameters in science, technology, society and environmental associations. One concluded that it is up to elementary school teachers to be concerned with modifying their didactic process towards the Science, Technology, Society and Environment (STSE) approach, taking advantage of the natural interest of children in learning, so that they arrive at high school better prepared, partially literate technological and scientifically. And it is up to high school teachers to guide adolescents regarding their expression of interest in participating in the contemporary world with a due associated knowledge.
