No presente artigo, discute-se a construção epistemológica da Educação em Ciência como área interdisciplinar que integra, por apropriações e transposições educacionais, campos relevantes do saber, nomeadamente a Filosofia da Ciência, a História da Ciência, a Sociologia da Ciência e a Psicologia Educacional. Desenvolvem-se, em seguida, argumentos de natureza curricular e de política educativa4 que procuram clarificar, afinal, para quê e para quem a Educação em Ciência. Debruçamo-nos, necessariamente, por fim, sobre o ensino das Ciências e suas orientações preferenciais e que se perfilam como as mais congruentes com os referenciais teóricos enunciados. Note-se que esse percurso de pesquisa/teoria/prática exige reflexão, tempo, maturação de idéias, cumplicidade com a inovação e empenho na ação.<br>The paper starts with a brief description of the epistemological construction of Science Education and its interdisciplinary character, in particular the contributions of the Philosophy of Science, History of Science, Sociology of Science and Educational Psychology. Secondly, arguments are developed in order to find out appropriate answers to two key educational issues, namely, the purpose of science education and who science education is for. Finally, the paper characterizes three main orientations for science teaching based on the previously developed framework.Date

PALS - Performance Assessment Links in Science1999-01PALS is an on-line, standards-based, continually updated resource bank of science performance assessment tasks indexed via the National Science Education Standards (NSES) and various other standards frameworks. The tasks, collected from numerous sources, include student directions and response forms, administration procedures, scoring rubrics, examples of student work, and technical quality data calculated from field testing. On-line rater training packets have also been created for some tasks. PALS is supported by a grant from the Elementary, Secondary, and Informal Education (ESIE) Division (Grant #: ESI-9730651) of the National Science Foundation.

NASA Earth Observatory: Biomes (title provided or enhanced by cataloger)This National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) website allows students to investigate biomes and then test their knowledge by completing missions. The site provides basic data about each biome such as temperature, precipitation, vegetation, location, description and links. Biomes discussed include coniferous forest, temperate deciduous forest, desert, grassland, rainforest, shrubland and tundra. The two missions (available at beginner and advanced levels) are designed to teach students about the relationship between temperature and precipitation and plants in biomes. A teacher resource guide provides details about goals, expected outcomes, extension ideas, and hands-on activities.
