Resum: |
Science teaching is not neutral, from the social point of view. It can strengthen present civilization crisis. Or not. What is our choice? But, do we indeed have a choice? The way science teaching research has been conducted seems to indicate that most of it serves to maintain everything the way it is - with all privileges, intolerances and exclusions included. In this work we bring about this discussion emphasizing the perspective of the sociology of science. We argue that without a major change of focus in that research area towards the inclusion of a sociological approach in teacher formation and their daily life in science classes, science teaching may be hold co-responsible for intensifying the problems our world is presently facing. |
