Resumen

LORIA CALDERON, Luis Andrés  y  NAVARRO CAMACHO, Marianela. Modifying the study plan for Natural Sciences Education, University of Costa Rica, 2020. Educación [online]. 2022, vol.46, n.1, pp.251-264. ISSN 2215-2644.  http://dx.doi.org/10.15517/revedu.v46i1.45521.

Modifying the Natural Sciences Education program involved a research process into global trends for Natural Sciences Education majors. Strengths and weaknesses of the current program were assessed. A bibliographic review of studies that delved into the socio-historical aspects of science teacher training in Costa Rica, Latin America and worldwide was executed that served as a baseline for an epistemological framework. The nature of scientific knowledge, how it is taught, as well as the subject-object relationship, was defined, thereby, helping to determine the objective of this career path for Natural Sciences Educators. The methodological design was approached from a constructionist epistemological perspective, through surveys, interviews and focus groups with key stakeholders. Basic descriptive statistics were performed for purposes of data analysis. Categories were established a priori with additional categories added a posteriori with regards to historical, philosophical and sociological theories of science, initial teacher training, pedagogy and didactics with graduation requirements based on the KSAVE Science Teaching model.

Palabras clave : Curriculum; Preservice Teachers; Science Education; KSAVE model; Study Plan.
