MULTIMODALITY IN NATURAL SCIENCE EDUCATION
Journal Title: Problems of Education in the 21st Century - Year 2012, Vol 44, Issue 1
Abstract
Natural Science Education plays a very important role in broadening students’ world outlook. The Natural Science classes should discuss real, concrete things and phenomena, which are a part of students’ reality and even everyday life (Lamanauskas, 2003). Nowadays it is necessary to take advantage of the Information and Communication Technologies to support innovative methodologies of teaching natural science. As well, it leads to different ways of seeing the world and consequently leads to different beliefs concerning our comprehension of the world. Expanding the experiences as the augmented reality, it is real now. So, words and terms which are used acquire meaning in the contexts where they are used. The relevant perspective within a sector is decisive for how a question, a problem, a statement is to be interpreted, what is interesting, pertinent an objective (Arroio, 2011).
