MALACARNE, Vilmar; STRIEDER, Dulce Maria  and  LIMA, Dartel Ferrari de. Ethics, science and teacher education: the school in contemporary society. Ens. Pesqui. Educ. Ciênc. [online]. 2011, vol.13, n.3, pp.51-66. ISSN 1983-2117.  https://doi.org/10.1590/1983-2117201113351.

This paper is the result of a qualitative research based on review of the literature, and discusses, from reflections on the development of science and concepts of ethics, directions for teacher formation and their role in contemporary school. The paper, based on notes about science and ethics, brings to discussion the role of school on the formation of individuals, as a producer and inserted within a technological society hampered by ethical discussions. The analysis indicated the need to incorporate ethics into the processes of science structuring and teacher formation with greater intensity, which is a way to increase its presence in everyday school life.

Keywords : Ethics; Science; Teacher Education.
