Abstract

This paper reports a study aimed at understanding the way primary science teachers articulate their beliefs and knowledge in a context of pedagogical transformation towards the pedagogical use of argumentation. 10 fourth grade science teachers participated in two interviews, in which pedagogical and disciplinary knowledge, epistemological beliefs and beliefs regarding nature of science, and teaching and learning, were explored. Results showed that teachers articulate knowledge and beliefs in a complex and heterogeneous manner. Moreover, the center of articulation of these beliefs and knowledge is both the avoidance of innovations that are perceived as unnecessary risks, and fear of not being able to respond to students’ thinking.
