MENDES, Alcina y MARTINS, Isabel P.. Five Orientations For The Teaching Of Science: The STS Dimension In The Crossing Between Didactics And International Educational Policies. Rev. iberoam. cienc. tecnol. soc. [online]. 2016, vol.11, n.33, pp.93-112. ISSN 1850-0013.
Research in science education has been producing knowledge that grants the understanding of problems and supports science education decisions. Some international organizations (such as EU, OECD and UNESCO) have also been producing documents to regulate global policies of science teaching, assuming that the scientific education is a requirement for economic and social prosperity. In this paper, the authors perform a systematic review of academic and political documents for science education, aiming to identify their points of convergence. The document Five Guidelines For Science Education was established as a standard to identify priorities for science teaching and teachers education. With this document, STS science education becomes a promising educational field and a topical issue from the academic and political point of view.
