GONCALVES, Sabrina Fernandes; MAGALHAES, Breno Santos Barbosa  y  BUNGENSTAB, Gabriel Carvalho. The nature of (pseudo)science and science education: a necessary conversation. Linhas Críticas [online]. 2022, vol.28, e41699.  Epub 08-Abr-2022. ISSN 1981-0431.  https://doi.org/10.26512/lc28202241699.

The present essay proposes to critically analyze the discourse of pseudoscience in contemporary society and what are the possibilities of constituting a critical scientific education. The current pandemic period strengthens the need for this discussion, in view of the large amount of fallacious and biased information that has been and is propagated every day about scientific practices. How to think about a scientific education that can shield itself from the deleterious effects of pseudoscientific practices? Finally, we believe in an education that can understand science not only as regulatory knowledge, but as emancipatory knowledge.

Palabras clave : Nature of Science; Pseudoscience; Education.
