Concept of the Nature of Science (NOS) of a Group of Teachers in an Immersion Program of Teacher-training in Science

This paper shows how a group of science teachers immersed in a training program—a Master’s Degree in Science Education (MSE) in a Mexican public state university—modified their initial profiles concerning the concept of the nature of science (NOS). The empirical information, collected at different t...

Concepción de la naturaleza de la ciencia formación del profesorado cambio de percepción. This paper shows how a group of science teachers immersed in a training program—a Master’s Degree in Science Education (MSE) in a Mexican public state university—modified their initial profiles concerning the concept of the nature of science (NOS). The empirical information, collected at different times during the two years of the MSE, comes from a single group of 11 teachers, who taught scientific subjects, by and large, in high school. The results in this first portion of the research project, show that the MSE improves the group of teachers’ initial inconsistent profies, as the pattern of the group shifted toward relativism. The difficulties of reducing the NOS to a technical model of content organization are discussed. Also approached is a line of interpretation concerning the teachers’ scientific literacy. Este trabajo muestra cómo un grupo de docentes del área de ciencias inmersos en un programa de formación –la Maestría en Enseñanza de las Ciencias (MEC) de una universidad estatal mexicana– modificaron sus perfiles iniciales acerca de la concepción de la naturaleza de la ciencia (CNC). La información empírica, recogida en diferentes momentos de los dos años de duración de la MEC, proviene de un grupo único de 11 docentes, quienes enseñan materias científicas, principalmente, en escuelas de educación media superior. Los resultados en este primer recorte de investigación, muestran que la MEC mejora los perfiles iniciales incoherentes de la CNC del grupo de docentes, al adoptar un patrón de grupo que tiende hacia el relativismo. Se discuten las dificultades de reducir la CNC a un modelo técnico de la organización del contenido. Se aborda también una línea de interpretación que se refiere a la alfabetización científica de los docentes.
