Abstract

This work proposes a critical revision on the principal problems faced at the present time by the teaching of science. It accomplishes a reflection on the objectives of the scientific education and the present challenges in the school. The conclusions appear for the need of a new definition of school science and in the form of conduction of the teaching activities.
