Open-access SCIENTIFIC EDUCATION IN BACHELARD'S PERSPECTIVE: TEACHING AS FORMATION

The problem of teaching-learning process appears in Bachelard's epistemology with a vey peculiar focus, as he defends that learning is a change in the psychological constitution of the subject, i. e., learning is to overcome obstacles that are interposed in the process of knowledge acquisition. Bachelard argues that the student's rupture with the obstacles that bar the comprehension of scientific concepts is important to allow learning to happen. This way, the main objective of science teaching should not lie on expositive classes in order to let the students acquire a large amount of contents, but the overcome of the obstacles that bar the comprehension of science thinking and science making nowadays.

Keywords:
formation; epistemological obstacle; epistemological profile.
