Una propuesta para estructurar la enseñanza de la filosofía de la ciencia para el profesorado de ciencias en formación

Abstract

It is acknowledged within didactics of science that knowledge about the nature of science is one of the fundamental components of general scientific literacy. This fact generates the need to introduce the philosophy of science in pre- and in-service science teacher education. In this paper, we present a conceptual framework that may result in theoretical criteria to select contents from the philosophy of science. This framework is used to analyse several proposals to teach the philosophy of science to science teachers.
