Una perspectiva socioeducativa en la didáctica de las ciencias

A socioeducational perspective in sciences' didactics

Pages 103-114 | Published online: 23 Jan 2014
 

Resumen

Tras una primera reflexión acerca del momento actual de la didáctica de las ciencias en nuestro país, se plantea la existencia de algunas carencias importantes, concretamente, la excesiva orientación hacia lo cognitivo del movimiento de las concepciones alternativas y el escaso impacto del paradigma cualitativo de investigación y de las estrategias de investigació n-acción. Frente a estas carencias, se alude al movimiento Ciencia-Técnica-Socie dad (CTS) como un punto de partida fundamental a la hora de reorientar -desde un punto de vista socioeducat i-vo-la didáctica de las ciencias. En esta línea, se proponen diferentes reflexiones y sugerencias acerca de la visión de la naturaleza del conocimiento científico que se transmite a través del aprendizaje, sobre el papel del contexto físico, social y cultural en el mismo, así como en torno al aula como espacio de interacción social.

Abstract

After an initial reflection about sciences' didactics in our country at present, the existence of some important gaps is set forth, specifically the excessive tendency towards what is cognitive in the movement of alternative conceptions and the insufficient impact of the qualitative researching paradigm and of the research-act ion strategies. Confronted with these deficiencies, the Science-Technique- Society (STS) movement is alluded to as an essential starting point when reorienting -from a socioeducational viewpoint- sciences' didactics. In this course, different reflections and suggestions are proposed about the view of scientific knowledge's nature transmitted through learning, on the paper of physical, social and cultural context it, as well as around the classroom as social interaction context.
