Abstract

LABURU, Carlos Eduardo; ARRUDA, Sérgio de Mello  and  NARDI, Roberto. Os programas de pesquisa de Lakatos: uma leitura para o entendimento da construção do conhecimento em sala de aula em situações de contradição e controvérsia. Ciência educ. [online]. 1998, vol.05, n.02, pp.23-38. ISSN 1516-7313.

It is shown in this work an analogy between Lakatos’ research programmes and the dynamics of students ideas in classroom situations. This analogy revealed itself a productive manner to analyse the development of students’ conceptions during a discussion process. With the conditions of intelligibility, plausibility and fruitfulness of Posner et alii. (1982) the analysis previously based in programmes could be enriched. We show with an example video-recorded during a class that our approach can be used as an effective analytical instrument to help teachers understanding and improving the processes of teaching and learning.

Keywords : Knowledge Construction; Alternative Concepcions; Cognitive Conflict; Research Programmes; Lakatos; Classroom.
