In the context of undergraduate studies, there are not many experiences in discussing didactic activities considering places different from school. However, research on practices in non-formal spaces, especially the museums of science, have been increasing. In this sense, we believe to be  important in teacher training programs and undergraduate studies to enhance the interest and training skills in  in out-of-school spaces for didactic activities. Thus, this paper presents our study with undergraduate Physics students, in a teacher training course named INTEGRATED EDUCATIONAL PRACTICES PROJECT 3 (PIPE 3) at the Federal University of Uberlândia (UFU), in the first semester of 2016. We intend to bring to light some possible contributions for Physics teacher training while they work in a proposal of digital artifacts for the exhibition of Electromagnetism from the DICA Museum. In this research, we found the evolution of the student's conceptions about science museums, and their recognition as educational spaces with objectives different from school. Therefore, we believe that this paper could evidence that the inclusion of educational activities involving nonformal spaces may contribute to teacher training in undergraduate studies.
