The pattern Sun-Earth-Moon in teacher trainee's iconographie language
Abstract
The abundance of images within textbooks does not always facilitate the understanding of the concepts. In this paper we study, the graphical representations made by Teacher training students, and the texts accompanying these drawings in relation to the subject of terrestrial and lunar movements and their consequences.
Students do not have a clear idea of the Sun/ Earth/ Moon model and they lack some concepts with which to build it. They also have difficulty in expressing themselves in diagrams.
Very strong inducements to attract attention are required in the written text, as well as specific instructions on the part of the teacher, if learning is to take place.
