TOCORA, Milena Alcocer  e  HERNANDEZ, Carola Hernández. Research in Science Teaching in Colombia: A Study from its Reifications. educ.educ. [online]. 2020, vol.23, n.1, pp.47-68. ISSN 0123-1294.  https://doi.org/10.5294/edu.2020.23.1.3.

Research products published and disseminated by the scientific community are more than material objects: they are reifications that represent its identity, meanings, and practice. This article presents an analysis of the community of science teaching researchers in Colombia based on its reifications. The study is conducted with a qualitative approach and from a critical and hermeneutical perspective. The research products reported on the Colciencias ScienTI platform, as well as the proceedings of the two major national events in the field held in the last decade, are reviewed. It was identified that the practice of this community revolves around interests related to two epistemological positions: science education and science didactics, which guide the production of researchers and determine the relationships between theory and pedagogical practice. The analysis also pinpoints the need to broaden the dialogues among the members of the community to reach concrete agreements that benefit research in Colombia.
