Resumo
CASTRO-MORENO, Julio Alejandro. Bioethics as a Mainstay of Biology Teacher Training. Rev. colomb. bioét. [online]. 2021, vol.16, n.2, pp.44-69. Epub 01-Set-2023. ISSN 1900-6896. https://doi.org/10.18270/rcb.v16i2.3199.
Purpose/Context.
This article presents a proposal on how to incorporate (or strengthen) bioethics education into the initial training of biology teachers in the Colombian context.
Materials and methods/Approach.
It begins with an overview of bioethics teaching in Colombia to define the context of the proposal. Subsequently, bioethics is defined based on the purposes of the article, for which Potter's concept of global bioethics is used and expanded, incorporating other dimensions beyond medical bioethics and environmental bioethics.
Results/Findings.
Some approaches complement global bioethics: This perspective must be practical, secular, inter- and transdisciplinary, and closely related to education. We mention some national situations that involve bioethical debates, which could play a preponderant role in the training of biology teachers. These situations should be addressed using particular teaching strategies.
Discussion/Conclusions/Contributions.
We reinforce the idea of why teachers must have a bioethical education, list the limitations of our proposal, and emphasize the perspectives and challenges arising from it.
