Os conceitos de Ciências e as reformas do ensino médio

Abstract

This research presents a historical-political review of Brazilian education, some historical moments, the impacts on educational policies and the philosophies of science involved are studied, with the objective of understanding the process that led to the construction and implementation of a Common National Curriculum Base. We seek to establish parallels with the epistemic thoughts of science and analyze the type of science that the Base intends to teach, as there is no clarity on this point in the normative documents that reformulated the structure of high school, and that impact the teaching and learning process in the sciences from nature. The research was qualitative, an exploratory-investigative documentary study of historical data and education documents. It was noticed that the Base is loaded with positive aspects of science, but there are points that are more open to different views, not favoring a more critical science teaching.
