Abstract: | The characteristics of contemporary society demand a
growing concern with scientific education in order to
prepare critical active and responsible citizens. In this
paper, we intend to discuss some of the results of a study
on education in Geosciences, diagnosing the importance
given by high school students (16-17 years old) to
scientific literacy. A mixed methodological approach was
chosen, guided by socio-critical paradigm. The results of
the study performed show that knowledge of students'
conceptions about the importance of scientific literacy can,
thus, support a school's performance and society to
contribute favourably to the development and
enhancement of citizenship |
