Figures & data

Figure 1. Didactic transposition: The general process by which scholarly knowledge, constructed in research institutions, is deconstructed and reconstructed into a suitable teachable form that suits the institutional conditions of an OSSEI, such as a museum. This process involves first the selection of knowledge by actors in the noosphere, then the transformation of knowledge by educators and disseminators. Adapted from Chevallard and Bosch (Citation2014).

Figure 2. The reference model is the explicit epistemological point of reference taken by the science education researcher, as suggested by ATD. It takes into account the relevant organisations of knowledge that exist in the contexts involved in didactic transposition and can be used in a critical analysis perspective or a productive design perspective. Adapted from Chevallard and Bosch (Citation2014).
