Abstract
This article aims to analyze conceptual, epistemological, and didactic perspectives that contribute to the modeling of scientific culture in normative and curricular documents guiding initial teaching education in natural sciences programs in Chile. A qualitative approach was employed, utilizing thematic content analysis to inductively extract codes. These codes were grouped into the following categories: (1) Science literacy, (2) Science for citizenship, (3) Science education, (4) Teacher education and standards, (5) Teaching and learning process, and (6) Epistemological and didactic approaches. These categories provide insights to the modeling of scientific culture from the documents analyzed. The study concludes that the referenced model of scientific culture transcends deficit thinking and simplistic tendencies by incorporating sociocultural aspects, thus offering opportunities for a contextualized scientific education. While the model recognizes multiple cultural dimensions involved in the development of scientific literacy, there are noticeable inconsistencies in the epistemological and didactic aspects, indicating traces of ‘traditional’ visions in cultural and scientific education. Therefore, it is recommended that approaches nurturing the development of southern epistemologies and a scientific culture tailored to local contexts be integrated alongside global trends in teacher education.
期刊介绍：
Cultural Studies of Science Education is a peer reviewed journal that provides an interactive platform for researchers working in the multidisciplinary fields of cultural studies and science education. By taking a cultural approach and paying attention to theories from cultural studies, this new journal reflects the current diversity in the study of science education in a variety of contexts, including schools, museums, zoos, laboratories, parks and gardens, aquariums and community development, maintenance and restoration.
This journal
focuses on science education as a cultural, cross-age, cross-class, and cross-disciplinary phenomenon;
publishes articles that have an explicit and appropriate connection with and immersion in cultural studies;
seeks articles that have theory development as an integral aspect of the data presentation;
establishes bridges between science education and social studies of science, public understanding of science, science/technology and human values, and science and literacy;
builds new communities at the interface of currently distinct discourses;
aims to be a catalyst that forges new genres of and for scholarly dissemination;
provides an interactive dialogue that includes the editors, members of the review board, and selected international scholars;
publishes manuscripts that encompass all forms of scholarly activity;
includes research articles, essays, OP-ED, critical, comments, criticisms and letters on emerging issues of significance.
