Concepciones alternativas y dificultades de aprendizaje en electrostática. Selección de cuestiones elaboradas para su detección y tratamiento

Resumen

The work we are presenting here tries to summarise the contributions made by research on the ideas and difficulties of students within the field of Electrostatics. These researches reveal that the concepts introduced in this domain, such as electric field and potential, are necessary prerequisites so as to acquire a scientific vision of electromagnetic phenomena. Thus, taking into account the importance of the concepts involved for a scientific vision of the circuits of continuous current and, in general, of the electromagnetic theory, we think it is important for teachers to have a first idea on which are the most problematic conceptions or at least, those that have been studied most.
