Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
The development of adequate student conceptions of the nature of science has been a perennial objective of science instruction regardless of the currently advocated pedagogical or curricular emphases. Consequently, it has been an area of prolific research characterized by several parallel, but distinct, lines of investigation. In the seminar these different lines of investigation will be discussed including students' and teachers' conceptions of the nature of science and teaching materials to adress the nature of science in the science classroom will be presented.
